Entry conditions

  • No work permitted without a separate work permit
  • Present passport, arrival card, return ticket and accommodation details to immigration on arrival
  • Extensions should be requested before the initial 30 days expire to avoid overstay penalties

  • No fee for the initial 30-day visa-free entry
  • Extension fee: approx. USD 25-50, processed same-day to a few days at the Immigration Department office

Tips for Hong Kong travelers

  • Apply for any extension in person at the Immigration Department before your initial 30 days run out
  • Keep a copy of your hotel booking and return flight, as these are commonly checked on arrival
  • Overstaying without an approved extension can result in fines or future entry difficulties
  • Confirm your specific airline's baggage/health documentation requirements separately from immigration rules
  • Business visitors attending meetings only (no paid local work) are generally fine on the standard visa-free entry
