Hong Kong Customs enhances electronic payment services

******************************************************

     Hong Kong Customs enhances the payment functions of electronic payment terminals at entry and exit control points from today (September 16). The public and passengers can continue to make payments using cash, Octopus Card, EPS, and Faster Payment System (FPS), as well as through the newly-added Mainland e-wallets, including WeChat Pay, Alipay, or UnionPay.

     Incoming passengers carrying dutiable commodities not entitled to or in excess of their exempt quantities should declare them to Customs officers stationed at the entry control point, and pay the duties. Otherwise, they may be prosecuted or fined.

     For information regarding duty-free concessions for incoming passengers aged 18 and above for personal use, please refer to www.customs.gov.hk/en/service-enforcement-information/passenger-clearance/duty-free-concessions/index.html.

     For information on the duty rates for dutiable goods, please refer to www.customs.gov.hk/en/service-enforcement-information/trade-facilitation/dutiable-commodities/types-and-duty-rates/index.html.
