What you can settle without going to the consulate
- apply for a Hong Kong entry visa through the e-Visa service of the Hong Kong Immigration Department
- check the validity, entries and duration on a visa you already hold before assuming you need a new one
- book nothing: since October 2023 the five offices take walk-ins and there is no appointment to make
Whatever you are applying for, the form is filled in online and only the passport travels, and somebody else can carry it for you.
