Visa processing time is usually four to 20 working days, with an express three-day service also available.

For a visa-free stay, or using a visa that does not allow employment, visitors may be required to prove that they have sufficient funds to cover the period of their stay in Hong Kong.

Extension of stay:

Where available, the official fee for an extension of stay is HK$190. If you wish to extend your stay, you must visit the nearest Immigration Department office at least seven days before your current stay is due to expire.

It is recommended that single adults travelling with children contact the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office in their country of residence, regarding any documentary evidence of parental responsibility that may be required at immigration.

Otherwise, pets will be kept in quarantine for up to six months, depending on the documentation provided; there may be an exemption from quarantine if the dogs and cats are over five months of age on arrival and have complied with all the permit terms.
