Frequently Asked Questions

Do Indians require a visa to visit Hong Kong?
Yes, Indian citizens do require a Pre-arrival Registration (PAR), more like an e-visa, before their intended travel date to enter Hong Kong. The PAR is a mandatory requirement that allows Indian travellers to visit Hong Kong, provided they meet the necessary conditions.
What should I do if I lose my Hong Kong PAR notification slip?
If you lose your Hong Kong PAR notification slip, you can easily download from Atlys app and reprint it. The slip must be reprinted on blank A4 white paper and carried with you during your travels.
Can I use the Hong Kong PAR for transit purposes?
Yes, the Hong Kong PAR can be used for transit purposes if you are passing through Hong Kong to another destination. However, the total duration of your stay, including transit time, should not exceed 14 days.
Can I use my Hong Kong PAR for business activities?
Yes, you can use the Hong Kong PAR for short-term business activities such as attending meetings, conferences, or seminars. However, the PAR does not permit you to take up long-term work or employment in Hong Kong.

  • The PAR is designed to facilitate short-term visits to Hong Kong, which includes attending business-related events. You can participate in business meetings, negotiate deals, and attend industry conferences without needing a separate visa.
  • However, suppose your business activities involve taking up employment, starting a business, or any form of long-term professional engagement. In that case, you will need to apply for a work visa or another appropriate type of visa that allows such activities.
  • The Hong Kong Immigration Department closely monitors activities conducted under PAR, so it’s important to stay within the permitted scope to avoid legal issues.
What should I do if I have questions or need assistance with my Hong Kong PAR application?
If you have any questions or need assistance with your Hong Kong PAR application, you can contact the Hong Kong Immigration Department 

  • The Hong Kong Immigration Department offers customer support for travellers who encounter issues or have questions about the PAR process. You can reach out to them via their official website or through their helpline numbers.
  • If you prefer personalised assistance, using a service provider like Atlys can be beneficial. Atlys offers comprehensive support throughout the application process, from filling out the form to troubleshooting any issues that may arise.
  • Atlys also provides step-by-step guidance, helping you avoid common mistakes that could lead to delays or rejections. Their service is particularly useful for first-time travellers or those unfamiliar with the online application process.
What are the requirements for Indians applying for a Hong Kong PAR?
To apply for a Hong Kong PAR, Indian travellers must provide specific personal and travel-related information during the application process. This includes:

  • Name in English: As it appears on your passport.
  • Alias in English (if any): If you have any other names or aliases that are officially recognised.
  • Gender: Male or female, as recorded in your passport.
  • Marital status: Indicate whether you are single, married, etc.
  • Date of birth: Enter your date of birth in the format DD/MM/YYYY.
  • Place of birth: The city or town where you were born, as recorded in your passport.

How does the Hong Kong PAR look like?
Here is a sample of the Hong Kong PAR Visa:
Document Image
Do I have to submit my passport for the Hong Kong PAR process?
No, you do not need to submit your physical passport when applying for Hong Kong PAR. The entire PAR application process is conducted online, and you will receive your approval notification electronically.
Can I modify the information on my Hong Kong PAR after submission?
No, you cannot modify the information once the PAR application has been submitted. If there are any errors or changes needed, you will need to submit a new registration. The PAR application is designed to capture accurate and complete information at the time of submission. Once you submit your application, the details are locked, and no further changes can be made.
What happens if my Hong Kong PAR application is unsuccessful?
If your Hong Kong PAR application is unsuccessful, you will not be able to enter Hong Kong using the PAR system. Instead, you will need to apply for a traditional visa through the Hong Kong Immigration Department.
Can I apply for a new Hong Kong PAR if my current registration is valid?
No, you cannot apply for a new Hong Kong PAR if your current registration is still valid. You can only apply for a new registration once the current one has expired or is about to expire.
Can I cancel my Hong Kong PAR if my travel plans change?
There is no formal process to cancel a Hong Kong PAR once it has been issued. However, if your travel plans change and you no longer need the PAR, it will simply expire after its six-month validity period.
Can I enter Hong Kong with a different passport after PAR approval?
No, you must enter Hong Kong with the same Indian passport that was used to apply for the PAR. If your passport details change after your PAR approval, such as due to passport renewal, you will need to reapply for PAR using your new passport details.
What should I do if I encounter issues at immigration with my Hong Kong PAR?
Suppose you encounter issues at immigration in Hong Kong, such as discrepancies between your passport and PAR information. In that case, it is important to stay calm and cooperate fully with the immigration officers. You should immediately provide any additional documents requested and, if necessary, contact the Hong Kong Immigration Department for assistance.
Do I need any additional documents when entering Hong Kong with a PAR?
In addition to your PAR notification slip and the passport used for the registration, you may be asked to present proof of sufficient funds, return or onward tickets, and details of your accommodation in Hong Kong.
Can I use the Hong Kong PAR to enter Macau or Mainland China?
No, the Hong Kong PAR is only valid for entry into Hong Kong. If you plan to visit Macau or Mainland China, you will need to apply for separate visas or travel permits for those regions. Each region has its own immigration policies and requirements.

  • Macau: Indian citizens typically do not require a visa for short stays in Macau, but you should check the latest regulations before travelling. However, if entering from Hong Kong, you must ensure you meet Macau’s entry requirements.
  • Mainland China: If you plan to enter Mainland China, you must apply for a Chinese visa, which you must obtain in advance from the Chinese Embassy or Consulate.
What happens if I arrive in Hong Kong without a valid PAR?
If you arrive in Hong Kong without a valid PAR, you will be denied entry and may be required to return to your country of origin or another destination. This can lead to additional costs, travel delays, and other inconveniences.
How often can I visit Hong Kong with a PAR?
With a valid PAR, you can visit Hong Kong multiple times within the six-month validity period. However, each individual visit should not exceed 14 days, and you must depart Hong Kong before the end of each 14-day period.
What are the consequences of overstaying in Hong Kong with PAR?
Overstaying in Hong Kong beyond the 14-day limit allowed by your PAR can have serious consequences. These may include fines, detention, deportation, and a potential ban from re-entering Hong Kong in the future.
Can I extend my stay in Hong Kong beyond the 14-day limit granted by PAR?
Yes, if you need to stay in Hong Kong beyond the 14-day limit granted by your PAR, you can apply for an extension of stay. This application can be made online or at the Immigration Office in Hong Kong, but it must be done before your current stay limit expires.
