Document to non-Chinese Hong Kong permanent residents by country to enhance convenience of immigration clearance

1 Jul 2024

EuroCham supports this excellent news, which aligns with what we have been asking for over the last year

As announced by the HKSAR Government:


"Non-Chinese Hong Kong permanent residents will soon be eligible for a card-type document (Mainland Travel Permits for Hong Kong and Macao Residents (non-Chinese Citizens)) to enhance convenience of clearance at control points of the Mainland, facilitating their visit to the Mainland for business, travelling, and visiting relatives. The Exit and Entry Administration of the country will start issuing the card on July 10.”


EuroCham supports this excellent news, which aligns with what we have been asking for over the last year. Until now, the Chinese Government has been gradually easing the entry for some European citizens. Nevertheless, other nationalities have not yet benefited from such measures. With today's measure announcement, we see an answer to our requests. Introducing simplicity for foreign visitors to enter China is only the beginning of reactivating and repositioning Hong Kong as an international hub and gateway to China.
