Hi All, Tier 1 SO forced to register and requiring a stamped passport. Not deemed violent or a predator in my state.
My wife is Chinese and has family in Hong Kong, we are planning on visiting in February 2025 and staying with her family. My question is, has anyone recently visited HK and if so do you have any tips or things to avoid?
Will I be detained, kicked out etc?
Do I need to fly direct from the US to HK or can I have a layover somewhere in Asia?
Don’t Go. You will not be allowed into Hong Kong. Was just denied Entry on the 27th of July.
David, any update on this?
There are conflicting accounts, many saying they get questioned and then allowed in and some saying they aren’t so I guess it is at their discretion depending on past convictions and other circumstances
I have been to Hong Kong a few times in the last 2 years, most recently Nov 2024 and got through without questioning
This time I wish to go may be different because the matrix was updated and says SO’s will be denied entry and also the police here decided to ask HK police to approve an address for me.
