Top Tips

01 The majority of homes in Hong Kong do not have ovens, as most Chinese cooking is done on a hob. Check kitchen appliances before signing a lease.
02 Hong Kong is mainly hot but it does get cold between December and February. Homes don’t have heating so you will need your own heating appliances.
03 All residents need a Hong Kong ID card. Queues for registration are always huge so book an appointment in advance.
04 Rental prices are very high in Hong Kong and you will usually be expected to pay six weeks rent to the estate agent to pay for his or her services.
05 Tax is not automatically deducted from your salary in Hong Kong. You will need to ensure that you put aside enough money each month for tax purposes.
