Before travelling to the Hong Kong China, it is important to check whether your nationality or type of travel document requires a visa or entry permit. In general, unless you have the right of abode or right to land in the HKSAR, you must obtain an appropriate visa or entry permit if you intend to:
- Visit Hong Kong for leisure, business, or social purposes beyond the visa‑free period applicable to your passport
- Work, study, establish or join in any business, or take up residence in Hong Kong
- Transit through Hong Kong if your nationality requires a visa for entry
