Public Hygiene

Some of the city’s public hygiene rules and laws include:

• Eating and drinking are not allowed on most public transport in Hong Kong.

• Hong Kong has strict laws about maintaining environmental hygiene, including fixed penalty fines of $1,500 for littering or spitting. See what constitutes a littering offence here. 

• Hong Kong also maintains a high standard of facilities to better protect public health. Public washrooms and hand sanitizers can be found at most tourist sites and in shopping malls. Get a full list of public toilets in Hong Kong here.
