Guide to Hong Kong Student Visa
November 11, 2017
EasyUni Staff
You must submit an application form along with proof of identity, evidence of your academic qualifications and a financial statement to the Immigration Department. It will normally take six weeks to process a visa or entry permit application for study upon receipt of all the required documents, so it’s always the best to apply as far in advance.
Just a reminder that you will have to renew your visa annually in order to continue your studies. You should do this four weeks before your old visa expires.
