Meanwhile, the SAR has also extended the visa-free visit period for nationals of Saudi Arabia to 90 days.

Passport holders of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) can now apply for a tourist visa upon arrival through six designated control points in Saudi Arabia.

Alternatively, they are also eligible to apply for an eVisa prior to their visit to the country.

There are two types of tourist visas:

• a single-entry visa for a maximum stay of 30 days
• a multiple-entry visa for a maximum stay of 90 days

Meanwhile, Hong Kong’s Immigration Department has also announced the extension of the visa-free period for nationals of Saudi Arabia to visit the HKSAR from 30 to 90 days, effective 15 January 2025.

A spokesperson for the Immigration Department said that these arrangements will bring greater travel convenience to HKSAR passport holders visiting Saudi Arabia, as well as enhance tourism, and cultural and economic ties between the two places.

As of today, 172 countries and territories have granted visa-free access or visa-on-arrival to HKSAR passport holders, including all six member states of the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf, comprising Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
