Online pre-arrival registration for Indian nationals valid 6 months, enabling visa-free visits up to 14 days for tourism, business, or transit.
Hong Kong's Pre-arrival Registration (PAR) is a streamlined online system introduced in 2017 for Indian nationals seeking visa-free entry for short stays. Applicants must hold a valid Indian passport (6+ months validity) and cannot have existing Hong Kong visas or rights of abode. The system accepts tourists, business travelers, and transit passengers (excluding direct air transit).
Registration is entirely online and free, with instant approval upon submission. The maximum stay is strictly 14 days with no extensions or work authorization permitted. Each registration is valid for six months and allows multiple entries during that validity period. Applicants must ensure their submitted information matches their passport exactly, as discrepancies may result in denial of entry.
This visa is ideal for Indian business travelers, tourists, and transit passengers seeking efficient visa-free access to Hong Kong for short visits under two weeks.
