Payment of HKSAR passport

I renew my passport this morning on 2nd fl. but the counter lady said HKSAR won't accept a check issued by America. ONLY money order or bank draft!? I brought my check book of Bank of America but she refused acceptance of the Bank of America check.

Hank, my question is what kind of payment did HKSAR accepted NOT China Consulate!

Please check below answer:
"a check of CHASE, CITIBANK or BANK OF AMERICA which is made payable to 'The Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region'."

Pete, I need to confirm where you are going to apply for your passport. If you go to Chinese consulate in America, then you should pay the fee as what I said. Besides, it's true that you can apply from the HK Immigration Department by mail or use the online service. But I searched and found out that only Visa or Mastercard credit card are accepted.

Anyway, you can confirm with Chinese embassy or consulate on this issue.

As I said, if you apply from Chinese consulate, then please consult with them to learn about the payment information. The information I provided is acquired from the website of Chinese embassy and consulate in USA. It was updated on Feb. 28, 2015. So I do think you should make a call to confirm this.
