Top tips for hiring a car in Hong Kong

  • Renting a car for transit when visiting Hong Kong has various advantages compared to using public transport. Renting a car allows you to explore Hong Kong on your schedule. Unlike public transport, which follows fixed schedules, renting a car will enable you to customize your itinerary and visit attractions when and how you wish. Rental vehicles also provide better accessibility to various attractions in Hong Kong, including Clear Water Bay, Sai Kung Peninsula, Hong Kong Global Geopark, Ngong Ping 360 gondola, and Tian Tan Buddha, than public transportation.
  • If you are flying into Hong Kong, your destination airport will be Hong Kong International Airport (HKG). If you want to rent a car from the airport, consider renting with Haw Rent A Car, the only rental company offering shuttle service and vehicle pickup from the airport. All the car rentals in Hong Kong have off-airport pickup locations.
  • When visiting Hong Kong with a child, ensure you have the appropriate child seats when driving a rental car. Infants up to one year old or weighing less than 20 lbs. must be secured in rear-facing child seats. Children between one and four years of age or weighing between 20 and 40 lbs. must also be in booster seats. If you do not have your car seat, consider renting from one of the agencies, including Avis and Hertz. Consider reserving the child seats as they may be limited, especially during peak tourist seasons.
  • If you plan on crossing the border to other regions from Hong Kong using your rental car, inform your rental agency of your cross-border travel plan to get a permit from them. You can drive to various regions within China with a rental car from Hong Kong, including Mainland China, Macau, and Guangdong Province. Ensure you have a valid driver’s license, passport or visa, rental agreement, and vehicle registration documents when crossing the border to other regions within China from Hong Kong.
  • Book your rental car in Hong Kong at least 2 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Economy rental cars in Hong Kong are around 26% cheaper than other car types, on average

  • What is driving like in Hong Kong?

    Hong Kong follows left-hand driving, and since the U.S. follows right-hand driving, this may be a challenging adjustment, especially at roundabouts and intersections. Hong Kong has narrow and winding roads in some areas, which can be challenging to navigate, so be sure to drive cautiously and consider renting a compact car for the narrow streets or a performance compact SUV with good handling and agility suited for navigating winding roads. Road signage in Hong Kong is in Chinese. However, rental companies in Hong Kong have GPS navigation systems with different language options. The agencies also offer multilingual customer support services where you can call and get assistance in a preferred language when driving around Hong Kong.

  • How old do you have to be to rent a car in Hong Kong?

    The age restrictions for renting a car in Hong Kong vary by rental agency and the type of car you want to rent. However, at most rental companies, you must be at least 21 years old to rent a vehicle. However, some rental companies, including Hawk, require renters to be 25 years old and above and have your driver’s license for at least two years to rent a car. Drivers younger than 25 years old will incur an additional fee for renting a car.

  • How are gas prices in Hong Kong?

    The price of gasoline in Hong Kong ranges from 15 to 18 HKD per liter, equivalent to $1.92 to $2.30. Gas stations are readily available throughout Hong Kong, especially in suburban and urban areas. The gas stations accept payment in cash and credit cards, including Mastercard and Visa.

  • What are speed limits in Hong Kong?

    The speed limits in Hong Kong vary with different roads. Therefore, when driving your rental car across Hong Kong, check for speed limit signs to be sure you are within the required limits. Hong Kong exercises a speed limit of 68 mph on highways and expressways, 70 mph on open roads outside urban areas, and 31 mph in urban areas. Various locations, including residential and school zones, may have lower speed limits than urban areas.
