Before Applying

Place of Application: In Hong Kong

A person is eligible to apply for a Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Passport if he/she is:

a Chinese citizen;
a permanent resident of the HKSAR; and
a holder of a valid Hong Kong permanent identity card.

Before submitting an application for a HKSAR Passport, the person concerned should read the definitions below to ascertain if he/she is a person of Chinese nationality and a permanent resident of the HKSAR.

In addition, if the person concerned is a permanent resident of the HKSAR but does not have a Hong Kong permanent identity card, he/she must apply for an identity card before applying for a HKSAR Passport. The parent/legal guardian of a child aged below 11 should submit the child's Hong Kong permanent identity card application upon the child's first application for HKSAR passport.

In case of emergency, for example, the applicant needs to return to Hong Kong immediately after he/she has lost his/her passport, he/she may approach the nearest Chinese Diplomatic and Consular Missions or the Mainland Offices. He/She may also contact the Assistance to Hong Kong Residents Unit of the Immigration Department through the 24-hour hotline (852) 1868 for assistance.

The passport contains only the personal particulars of the passport holder. Applicants should apply for a separate passport for each of their accompanying children.

Q1. Am I eligible for a HKSAR Passport?
You are eligible to apply for a HKSAR Passport if you are a Chinese citizen, have the Right of Abode (ROA) in the HKSAR and are holding a valid Hong Kong permanent identity card (PIC).

Q2. Am I a Chinese citizen?
You are a "Chinese citizen" if you have Chinese nationality under the Chinese Nationality Law as elaborated in "the interpretation of Chinese Nationality Law when applying in the HKSAR" passed by the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress of the Chinese Government on 15 May 1996. In general, you may have Chinese nationality if you are a Hong Kong resident of Chinese descent and born in Hong Kong or other parts of China, notwithstanding that you hold, or have held any foreign passport.

Q3. I am a person partly of Chinese blood and holding a valid Hong Kong permanent identity card. Am I qualified for a HKSAR Passport?
Article 4 of the Nationality Law of the People's Republic of China states that any person born in China whose parents are Chinese nationals or one of whose parents is a Chinese national shall have Chinese nationality.
Article 5 of the same Nationality Law states that any person born abroad whose parents are both Chinese nationals or one of whose parents is a Chinese national shall have Chinese nationality. But a person whose parents are both Chinese nationals and have both settled abroad, or one of whose parents is a Chinese national and has settled abroad, and who has acquired foreign nationality at birth shall not have Chinese nationality.

It follows that each case has to be considered individually, taking into account the provisions of the Nationality Law mentioned above.

Q4. I am a Chinese national holding a valid Hong Kong permanent identity card and a foreign passport. Can I apply for a HKSAR Passport?
If you have returned to settle in Hong Kong and have not declared a change of nationality to the Hong Kong Immigration Department, you remain a Chinese national and are eligible for a HKSAR Passport.
(Please note that "settled", in relation to a person's claim to the right of abode in the HKSAR, means ordinarily resident in Hong Kong and is not subject to any restriction on the period of stay in Hong Kong.)

Q5. If I remain a Chinese national, can I keep my foreign passport when I obtain a HKSAR Passport?
Yes, you can keep and travel on your foreign passport, which will be regarded in Hong Kong and other parts of China as a travel document only.

Q6. How long does it take to get a HKSAR Passport?
If you have a valid Hong Kong Permanent identity card, the processing time of your overseas passport application will normally take about 4 to 6 weeks upon receipt of all necessary documents, fee and photograph. It will take about 6 to 8 weeks for processing a HKSAR passport application if you do not have a valid Hong Kong permanent identity card. The time for forwarding the application and dispatching the prepared passport is excluded. Whether this pledge can be met will also depend on the circumstances of individual applications and the number of applications received at a particular time.

Q7. Can I ask to include my child in my HKSAR Passport?
No. The passport will contain only the personal particulars of the passport holder. An application should be made for your child for his own HKSAR Passport.

Q8. What are the features of the HKSAR Passport?
The features of the HKSAR Passport are :
- The passport is in machine readable format that will facilitate the holder's immigration clearance at foreign immigration control points equipped with machine reading facilities.
- The passport will contain only the personal particulars of the holder. Children of any age should hold their own passport.
- To tie in with the international trend, the passport is embedded with a contactless chip storing the photo and data which are displayed on the data page.
- The passport is normally valid for 10 years unless otherwise specified; passport for children under 16 years of age is normally valid for 5 years.
- The passport states that the holder has the right to return to HKSAR.
- The passport is valid for all countries.
