Visa-free period for holders of HKSAR passports to Thailand extended
***************************************************************

     The period of visa-free entry for holders of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) passports to Thailand has been extended from up to 30 days to 60 days.

     An Immigration Department spokesman said, "Thailand is along the Belt and Road, and is a member state of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations. The two places have a close relationship in people-to-people and cultural exchanges. Under the Belt and Road Initiative, this extension of the period of visa-free entry will bring greater travel convenience to holders of HKSAR passports and strengthen the tourism, 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 holders of HKSAR passports. Please visit the following website for details:
