FOR VISA TO HONG KONG SAR

　　1. Visitors are required to have adequate funds to cover the duration of their stay without working and, unless in transit to the Mainland of China or the Macao Special Administrative Region, to hold onward or return tickets. If you want to stay longer than the visa free period allowed, you must apply for a visa before travelling to the HKSAR.

　　2. Visitors are not allowed by law to take up employment (paid or unpaid), to establish or join in any business, or to enter school as a student, nor, except in the most unusual circumstances, are visitors allowed to change their immigration status after arrival.

　　3. You may apply for the appropriate visa from the nearest Chinese diplomatic and consular mission.

　　4. As an alternative, you may also submit your visa application to the HKSAR Immigration Department either directly by post or through a local sponsor. To shorten the processing time, application forms and supporting documents can be sent by fax to (852) 2824 1133 in the first instance. However, the original copy of the duly completed application form and the photographs required should be sent immediately to the HKSAR Immigration Department by air mail. A visa/entry permit will be issued only on receipt of an original, properly completed visa/entry permit application form.

　　5. Persons who need a visa for visit (or purposes other than a visit) should obtain the appropriate visa before travelling to the HKSAR.
