With effect from January 17, The Immigration Department (ImmD) adjusted the submission means of the following admission policies/schemes:

1. General Employment Policy (including both employment and investment as entrepreneurs);

2. Admission Scheme for Mainland Talents and Professionals;

3. Capital Investment Entrant Scheme;

4. Training;

5. Working Holiday Scheme; 

6. Residence as Dependants. 

Applicants of the aforementioned admission policies/schemes must submit their applications for visa/entry permits and extensions of stay by electronic services with effect from January 17. The ImmD no longer accept such applications submitted in person, or by post or drop-in-box. The eligibility and approval criteria for the relevant policies/schemes remain unchanged. After submitting the applications, applicants can also upload supplementary documents and/or inquire as to the status of applications online if necessary.
Electronic services for a visa application allow applicants to complete the entire process of an application submission, payment and collection of an "e-Visa" through the ImmD mobile application, the ImmD's website (www.immd.gov.hk/eng/index.html) or the GovHK website (www.gov.hk/en/nonresidents/), without having to visit an Immigration Office in person.
