Can a foreigner buy a boat in Hong Kong?

Yes, foreigners can buy boats in Hong Kong without restrictions. Hong Kong is known for its open market policies, and there are no specific legal barriers to foreigners owning vessels.

How long can a yacht stay in Hong Kong?

The duration a yacht can stay in Hong Kong depends on its registration and whether it has the necessary permits. Things to consider include:

1. Temporary Visits (Foreign-Registered Yachts)
Temporary Import Permit: Foreign yachts can apply for a temporary importation arrangement under the Customs and Excise Department, typically allowing a stay of up to 6 months without paying import taxes. Extensions may be possible, but additional applications and approvals are required.

2. Berthing and Mooring
Hong Kong has various marinas and mooring options (e.g., Gold Coast Yacht and Country Club, Aberdeen Marina Club). The duration of stay may also depend on the marina's policies, availability, and berthing agreement.

3. Visas and Crew Considerations
If the yacht is crewed, ensure compliance with Hong Kong's immigration and labor requirements. Crew visas or landing permits may limit their stay, which could indirectly affect the yacht’s operations.

For long-term stays or commercial use, yachts may need to comply with customs, taxation, and licensing regulations. Always consult a local agent or marine services provider for the most accurate and up-to-date guidance.

What are the best yacht cruising grounds around Hong Kong?

What is the best time of year to sail in Hong Kong?

The best time to sail in Hong Kong is typically from October to December. During this period the weather is mild and pleasant, with average temperatures ranging from 18°C to 25°C (64°F to 77°F). It's also relatively dry compared to the humid summer months. The northeast monsoon season brings steady and favorable winds for sailing, making it ideal for both experienced sailors and beginners. Clear skies and lower humidity improve visibility, offering stunning views of Hong Kong's iconic skyline, islands, and waters. This period often coincides with sailing regattas and yachting events, such as the Hong Kong Open Dinghy Sailing Championships and other local races. Spring (March to May) is another good season for sailing, but the weather can be more unpredictable with occasional rain and fog. Avoid the summer months (June to September) due to typhoons and heavy rainfall.
