If there is no service charge in the restaurant, you can voluntarily tip 10% of the consumption. Taxi drivers, doormen and toilet attendants, passengers can give tips as appropriate.

3. Voltage. The voltage in Hong Kong is 200/220 volts, and most hotels are equipped with transformers/converters for electrical appliances. Small appliances brought from China are generally acceptable.

The tap water supplied by the Hong Kong government is soft water, which is disinfected by chlorine and meets the standards of the United Nations World Health Organization and is suitable for drinking. Hotels and supermarkets also sell various bottled distilled water and mineral water. Some parks also have drinking places where visitors can drink water for free.
