Visiting Hong Kong

Nationals of more than 170 countries and territories can come to Hong Kong for short visits visa-free (ranging from seven days to 180 days). If a visitor wants to stay longer than the visa-free period allowed, he/she must apply for a visa before travelling to Hong Kong at either the nearest Chinese diplomatic and consular mission or by mail or to the Immigration Department directly by post or through a local sponsor.

Visit Immigration Department website for more information on visa requirements for travelling to Hong Kong.
