Visiting Hong Kong: Chinese citizen → Hong Kong
Visa-free for a short visit
China passport holders can visit Hong Kong visa-free for a short stay (7–180 days, depending on nationality). Confirm your allowance on the official source.
The bottom line
- Visa-free length of stay varies by nationality (commonly 14, 30, 90 or 180 days).
- Carry a passport with adequate validity and onward/return travel; the visit must not involve taking up employment, study or residence.
- Visa-free entry is permission to travel, not a guarantee — the immigration officer decides on arrival.
⚠️ Hong Kong SAR and Macao SAR passport holders are not visa nationals — select Hong Kong or Macao instead.
