Can I apply for a self-service visa without a three-year Hong Kong and Macao Pass?

There is no three-year self-service visa for Hong Kong and Macao Pass.

According to the information of the National Immigration Bureau and Zhihu, people who hold valid electronic passes to and from Hong Kong and Macao and collect face and fingerprint information when handling electronic passes to and from Hong Kong and Macao can go through customs clearance formalities by themselves. In addition, the Hong Kong and Macao Pass can be renewed online, and travel endorsements to and from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan can be made through Alipay and the Entry-Exit Government Service Network, and the progress of document processing and entry-exit records can be inquired. There is no need to wait in line in the entry and exit hall. However, under normal circumstances, the first endorsement of the Hong Kong and Macao Pass cannot be made on the self-service machine. Therefore, the Hong Kong and Macao Pass can be self-service visa without three years.
