- • Who can import: Individuals and companies can import; companies need an EORI number
- • A China-spec car without an EU CoC needs individual approval and a technical inspection before registration

EU duty 10% + VAT 27%, plus two power-and-class based charges: the registration tax of HUF 47,000 × a multiplier (BEV classes 5E/5Z pay 0; a 1.5T petrol at 100–120 kW pays about HUF 70,500–94,000) and the vehicle acquisition duty (BEVs exempt; a 0–3-year-old 110 kW petrol pays 110 × HUF 850 ≈ HUF 93,500), together roughly EUR 400–500 for a petrol car. New China-built BEVs and range-extender cars carry the EU countervailing duty: 35.3% unless a listed manufacturer issues the invoice with the required declaration; used cars (registered over 6 months and driven over 6,000 km) are outside it. Hungary is landlocked: cars arrive via Koper or Rijeka and continue by road. China-spec cars without an EU CoC need single-vehicle approval (cost estimated).
