Do you need a visa to travel to Hong Kong?

You don't need a visa to travel to Hong Kong, because you don't need a passport. If you want to go abroad, you need a passport and apply for a visa to the country you want to go to.

However, if you want to go to Hong Kong and Macao, you need to apply for a Hong Kong and Macao Pass and a Hong Kong endorsement.

Information required for passport and endorsement: household registration book, identity card, application form (this form is available at the entry-exit permit office and travel agency), and two standard passport photos (the size and requirements are available on the application form, and there is a special photography department next to the entry-exit permit office and travel agency to take such photos); Non-free cities may also need the local police station to stamp the application form before they can apply for passes and endorsements through travel agencies.
