Passport and visa requirements are subject to change. Use the following information only as general guidelines. The embassy or consulate of your destination country is the best source for current, detailed requirements. Allow plenty of lead time to obtain detailed information and prepare the requisite credentials.
All foreign nationals require a valid passport and visa for entry.
Exit visas are issued automatically with entry visas, and both visas are valid only for the stated gateways. If you are holding your return or onward travel tickets, be sure to reconfirm your reservation to ensure that your departure date coincides with the date on your exit visa. Travelers accustomed to arranging their China visas through agencies in Hong Kong should be reminded that Hong Kong is now officially part of China. The old arrangements for obtaining China visas through Hong Kong no longer apply. Hong Kong's visa requirements differ from those for mainland China.
