Hong Kong Dependant Visa
A dependant spouse and unmarried dependent children under the age of 18, may accompany a sponsor who holds either a valid visa, e.g. employment, student or capital investment visas or who has already attained permanent residency in Hong Kong. Dependents do need to apply for individual dependant visas however.
Show DetailsUnder the current Hong Kong immigration policy, dependants are free to work, study or set up their own business in Hong Kong.
In July 2003 the age limit for unmarried dependent children was lowered to 18 and under, and the age limit for dependant parents was raised to 60. Only permanent residents are allowed to sponsor dependant parents.
Nationals of Afghanistan, Albania, Cuba and North Korea are not allowed to sponsor dependants.
