Shipping Cost from Hong Kong to Mumbai

Import Tax and Duty Explained If you have lived in Hong Kong at least 12 months and owned the car at least 6 months of that period, there is zero tax and zero duty to pay. If the car is over ten years of age and you have not previously owned it then expect 10% duty on a current value for the car and 20% VAT.

Hong Kong to Mumbai by Container ship The quickest way to get from Hong Kong to Mumbai by ship will take about 13 days 3h and departs from Shekou (CNSHK) and arrives into Nhava Sheva (INNSA). There are vessels departing daily on this route.

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.
