Online visa information portal launched

IMPACT — MEDIUM

Hong Kong immigration authorities recently launched an online visa information portal for foreign nationals to learn about visa eligibility requirements.

Key Points:

• Individuals can now use the Talents Service Unit online platform to find information on Hong Kong’s talent visa programs and submit applications online.
• Applicants can use the platform’s Talent Admission Scheme Matching Tool to determine what immigration programs they are eligible for and then be directed to the Immigration Department’s e-Visa platform to submit applications online.
• Once approved, foreign nationals will be able to obtain their visa online through the platform. More information regarding the TSU online platform is available here.
