To encourage the public to switch to electric vehicles, promote green transportation, and improve air quality, the government launched the electric vehicle "One-for-One" Scheme from February 28, 2018 to March 31, 2026 (inclusive of both dates). Eligible car owners who arrange to scrap and cancel the registration of their old internal combustion engine (ICE) private cars and purchase a new electric vehicle may receive a First Registration Tax (FRT) concession of up to HK$172,500. If the new car price of the purchased electric vehicle does not exceed $274,500, no FRT is required to be paid for the electric vehicle.
💡 The 3 Major Conditions for Meeting the "One-for-One" Scheme Criteria
Condition 1 – The old ICE vehicle must be at least 6 years old
When applying for the "One-for-One" scheme, do not confuse the "Date of First Registration" with the "Year of Manufacture". The scheme requires the period between the date of first registration and the date of cancellation of registration of the old vehicle to be a minimum of 6 years. When using any vehicle to participate in the scheme, it is crucial to verify the "Date of First Registration" to avoid disqualification.
