No Age Restriction for Vehicles in Tonga

One of the benefits of importing a vehicle to Tonga is the flexibility of age restrictions. Tonga allows the import of used vehicles regardless of their age. This means you have a wide variety of options, from recent models to older but reliable vehicles. However, only right-hand drive vehicles are allowed, so keep this in mind when selecting a car.

Shipping to Nukualofa: Fast and Efficient

EVERY Co Ltd works closely with trusted shipping lines like Pacific Forum Line, providing reliable and timely shipments to Tonga’s main port, Nukualofa. The shipment process typically takes 21-25 days via RoRo (Roll-on/Roll-off) shipping, with weekly vessel schedules ensuring that your vehicle arrives promptly.

No Inspection Required

Another advantage for buyers in Tonga is that no pre-export inspection is required for vehicles being imported. This helps speed up the process and reduces the paperwork involved in bringing your car into the country.

Duties and Taxes: What You Need to Know

When importing a used car to Tonga, there are specific duties and taxes based on the engine capacity of the vehicle. These costs can vary depending on whether the car is less than 10 years old or older than 10 years.

For Vehicles Less Than 10 Years Old:

  • Up to 1500cc: 50 cents per cc
  • Between 1500-3000cc: 75 cents per cc
  • Over 3000cc: $1 per cc

For Vehicles Over 10 Years Old:

  • Up to 1500cc: 25 cents per cc
  • Between 1500-3000cc: 38 cents per cc
  • Over 3000cc: 50 cents per cc

Understanding these fees will help you calculate the total cost of importing your vehicle, allowing you to make informed decisions.
