Hong Kong is a very easy place to visit without her needing a visa. It’s more expensive but last year my Filipino wife, our son and I spent 3 months in Armenia. She needed an e-visa which is very easy to get and costs $14. Surprisingly there are quite a few Filipinos who come to Armenia because it is easy for the OFWs in the Middle East to go there and they want to see snow.
You will also have no problem going to Armenia and will be granted 180 days stay up on arrival.
Wow that’s great to know about Armenia. I’m in a similar situation and got married in Hong Kong 2024. I’ve applied for citizenship by descent in a couple European countries and I’m hoping to hear back within the next year or two. Tough road ahead but I’m determined.
I would say your best bet is Hong Kong at this point. She won’t need a visa but keep in mind the Philippines doesn’t make anything easy.
how can we visit Hong Kong being on the SO list and how does she get and evisa doesn’t she needs a Schengen Visa or something else to even apply for an evisa
I just saw your post. I was just in HK in June for the 4th time. The last 2 times I was pulled aside for secondary questioning and then allowed to enter.
When you go just prepare everything they might ask for including, your flight information, hotel, itenerary, your job back in the US, who you will be visiting and they will probably ask why you don’t go somewhere else.
Also, make sure to have the information of the person you will visit. Her passport number, flight information, how long you have known her, if you have pictures together and things like that.
One thing I learned is to download it in your phone because in the area that they do secondary questioning there is no internet so you will need it to be downloaded or they will get impatient with you trying to find the information.
Citizens of the Philippines do not need an evisa for HK and in fact you will see Filipinos all over when you visit HK and many will be helpful if you need directions or anything else.
