Car Hire Tips

  • Book early: Reserve your car ahead of time to lock in the best rates.
  • Pick-up & drop-off: Choose times carefully, as companies charge by the day.
  • Traffic fines: Respect local traffic rules to avoid penalties.
  • Fuel policy: Opt to return the vehicle with a full tank to save on costs.
  • Mileage: Check whether your rental includes unlimited kilometers if you plan to drive extensively.
  • Location: Off-airport rentals may be cheaper, but airport pick-up is the most convenient.
  • Extras: Add GPS, child seats, or extra drivers during booking if needed, but keep in mind they increase the final cost.
  • Insurance: Consider additional coverage beyond the standard insurance included.
  • Documents: Be ready to provide a valid passport, visa, Chinese phone number, and temporary driving permit. Without it, you must book a rental with driver.
  • Age requirements: Minimum rental age is 21. Drivers under 25 may pay an additional “young driver fee.”
