What are the conditions for purchasing duty-free cars in Hainan?

Hainan duty-free car purchase conditions are for local residents with relevant documents. Below is an introduction about automobiles: Definition of automobile: According to the latest national standard of China "Terms and Definitions of Types of Automobiles and Trailers" (GB/T3730.1-2001), an automobile is defined as follows: A non-track vehicle with 4 or more wheels, driven by power, mainly used for transporting people and/or goods; towing vehicles for transporting people and/or goods; special purposes. Introduction to domestic automobile brands: Domestic automobile brands include Hongqi, Changan, Great Wall, Chery, Geely, Roewe, BYD, etc.
I just bought a duty-free car in Hainan a couple of days ago, and it feels like a great deal. The condition is that you must have lived in Hainan for at least 180 days, and only people like me who work or live on the island can apply. When applying, you need to prepare materials such as your ID card, rental contract, or work certificate to prove you're a permanent resident. After purchasing the car, it can only be driven within the province and cannot be taken out of the island casually; otherwise, you'll have to pay back the taxes. The money saved can be used to install better equipment. It's convenient for daily commutes or trips, and I suggest friends who want to buy a car first confirm the policy details to avoid problems that could delay things. Overall, it's a big benefit for young people or new residents—saving money and being practical.
