Question

HelloI will be travelling from the UK to Australia via Hong Kong (2 hour transit) on a Sri Lankan passport. From my research it appears that I will need a transit visa for my 2 hour layover in HK. Can someone please confirm this? Many thanks in advanceRuwan

Mr.Sam · Answer

Mr. Ruwan, yes, you need a transit visa for your 2 hour stopover in Hk. Sri Lankan citizens (except holders of Diplomatic and Official passports) are required to hold a valid visa for the HKSAR for whatever purpose (including those who are in transit and remain on the airside).
