Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Chennai to Hong Kong

The cheapest way to ship a car internationally is generally Roll-on/Roll-off (RORO), where cars drive onto and off the ship, costing around $900-$2,500+ depending on destination, as it avoids packaging and crane costs. For more protection, Shared Container shipping (grouping cars) is the next cheapest, while booking through platforms like Shiply or using companies with price matching, like SGT Auto Transport or Sherpa, can also find competitive rates.

The importer of any vehicle for personal use into Hong Kong is required by law to file an import return to the Customs and Excise Department within 30 days of the importation of the vehicle. Although no duties are payable on arrival, you will have to pay a registration tax.

The cheapest way to ship a car is typically open transport on a multi-car hauler, exposing it to the elements but saving significantly over enclosed shipping, with further savings from booking in advance, choosing terminal-to-terminal, and being flexible with dates, or even driving it yourself for short moves. Compare quotes from several carriers and brokers to find the best deal, especially if you can wait for off-peak times or multi-car loads.
