Extending Closed Road Permit validity period and adjusting fees from January 1, 2026
************************************************************************************
In addition, from the same day, the CRP fees will also be adjusted based on the cost-recovery principle:
| Vehicle type | Fee per month for CRP valid for less than 12 months ($) (Note) |
Flat rate fees for CRP valid for 12 to 60 months ($) |
| Private car | 62 | 744 |
| Goods vehicle or bus | 49 | 588 |
For applications received on or before December 31, 2025, the validity period of the CRP issued will remain no more than 12 months, and the CRP fees will be kept at the existing levels.
To streamline processes, from January 1, 2026, cross-boundary private cars permitted to use more than one land-based boundary control point (BCP) will be issued with a single CRP covering all BCPs concerned.
A spokesman for the TD said that the Government is committed to enhancing the CRP arrangements to bring greater convenience to cross-boundary travellers. Under the new arrangements, most CRP holders will benefit from less frequent renewals and a lower aggregated amount of CRP fee payable. Of note, vehicles approved to participate in the Northbound Travel for Hong Kong Vehicles, the Southbound Travel for Guangdong Vehicles or other designated cross-boundary driving schemes have been exempted from applying for CRPs and will not be affected by the fee adjustment.
For enquiries, members of the public may call the TD's hotline at 2804 2600 for details.
