HK Govt to Issue Multiple Entry Permits to Chinese Residents of Taiwan

A spokesperson for the Immigration Department of Hong Kong announced Friday that with effect from January 29, a new Multiple Entry Permit (MEP) will be issued to Chinese residents of Taiwan working or residing in Hong Kong.

The permit will allow the holder to re-enter Hong Kong any time during the period of permitted stay and will facilitate endorsement for extension of stay.

At present, single-journey and multiple-journey permits are issued to Chinese residents of Taiwan for short-term visits to Hong Kong, such as tourism and business visits.

However, only single-journey permits are issued to those who enter Hong Kong for employment or residence. For extension of stay or re-entry purposes, they have to obtain a "Declaration of Identity for Entry Purposes" from a law firm.

"With the introduction of the MEP, the travel convenience of Taiwan residents to Hong Kong will be further enhanced", said the spokesman.
