Requirements for hiring a vehicle
To hire a car in China and drive legally, the following requirements must be met:
- Chinese driving licence: Foreign drivers must obtain a valid Chinese driving licence. The International Driving Permit (IDP) is not sufficient on its own, although some companies may request it as supporting documentation.
- Personal documentation: Valid passport with a valid visa.
- Credit card: Required to pay the security deposit, the amount of which varies depending on the type of vehicle and insurance coverage.
- Minimum age: Drivers are generally required to be at least 21 years old, although some companies may impose a higher minimum age for certain vehicle categories.
If you do not hold a Chinese driving licence, the most practical alternative is to hire a car with a driver or use the public transport and ride-sharing services available at the airport.
