L-sign can only enter Hong Kong with the team, not alone like free G-sign.

The customs clearance service can be handled in WeChat official account and Taobao, such as EMS and SF.

7. Hong Kong can only stay for 7 days, and fly abroad for more than 8 days. Does it exceed the 7-day deadline to return after 8 days?

Xing zhe Lao Hu

After you enter Hong Kong, go to the airport for boarding pass, security check and exit. When you arrive at the waiting hall, you have actually left the country and won't overstay. When you come back, you will enter the country again and then leave the country to return to the mainland. There is no problem of overstaying for 7 days.

10, passport at Hong Kong International Airport or boarding pass with Hong Kong and Macao Pass?

Xing zhe Lao Hu

Visitors flying from Hong Kong to the Mainland should use the Hong Kong and Macao Pass to purchase tickets and apply for boarding passes. But ... if you go abroad from Hong Kong, you must apply for a passport to buy tickets and a boarding pass. The Hong Kong and Macao Pass is only valid in Hong Kong and Macao, and foreign countries will not recognize the validity of the Pass.

1 1. Must the entry and exit documents for Hong Kong be the same as those for flying?

It doesn't matter what you board when you enter or leave Hong Kong. Can be the same certificate, such as entry and exit and boarding are passports; It can be different. Passport enters Hong Kong, passport is checked in (air ticket is passport), passport leaves the country at the airport customs, and passport is taken to the boarding gate to fly abroad.

Traveler Khufu: Buy a plane ticket with a certificate-enter Hong Kong with a certificate-register with a certificate-check in at the airport-leave Hong Kong with a certificate-board a plane with a certificate-fly to other areas.

The entry and exit process is different from the flight process, but the sequence of the two processes is often mixed, which makes people confused, but please remember one principle:

The entry and exit documents must be consistent, that is to say, those who enter the country with passports must enter and leave Hong Kong and Macao with passports, and the boarding documents can be different.

13. Can I fly abroad from Hong Kong International Airport by e- channel?

Walker Old Lake:

Anyone who enters Hong Kong with a passport must leave the airport with a passport and cannot take the E-way; If you use the electronic card-type Hong Kong and Macao Pass to enter Hong Kong, you can take the pass and take the E-way, so you don't have to wait in line much faster. Even if you board the plane with your passport, you can take the e-channel of the airport to leave the country by yourself.

When returning to Hong Kong, the airport can also use a pass. If you don't (occasionally) return to Hong Kong, take the manual passage.

14. What should some foreign airlines do when they fly back to Hong Kong from abroad?

Xing zhe Lao Hu

I have been in this situation. You can tell the airline staff that Hong Kong belongs to China and your China passport can enter Hong Kong. In addition, you can show your Hong Kong and Macao Pass directly, but don't use it to register your mobile phone. In fact, it is impossible to apply for a pass.

15. Can I fly from Hong Kong to the Mainland with my passport, and then fly back to Hong Kong and Shenzhen from the Mainland?

Xing zhe Lao Hu

It's best to buy a ticket with a Hong Kong and Macao pass and use it as much as possible when going back and forth. Although I have a record of using my passport to buy air tickets and flying from Hong Kong to the mainland, when I left Beijing Airport, I also encountered a situation where I could not use my passport to travel to and from Hong Kong, but only used a Hong Kong and Macao pass.

16, can I use my ID card to buy a Hong Kong ticket or check in for a Hong Kong plane?

Xing zhe Lao Hu

No, you can't use your ID card in Hong Kong and Macao. You can only use your Hong Kong and Macao Pass. Even if you fly to the mainland, you can't use your ID card. You must use your Hong Kong and Macao Pass to buy any flights at Hong Kong International Airport, including domestic flights, or use your passport to buy air tickets and check in.

17. What should I do when I arrive at Shenzhen Port and find that the renewal pass has expired?

Xing zhe Lao Hu

I met it once. I forgot to renew my Hong Kong and Macao Pass, and I couldn't pass the customs at that time. However, many places in Shenzhen have self-service endorsement machines, which can renew the electronic card Hong Kong and Macao Pass on the spot. For example, some police stations in the entry-exit registration halls of various districts in Shenzhen recently have self-service endorsement machines outside the Futian Port Building. You can leave the country in a few minutes on the spot, but you can only pay by bank card. At the same time, only registered residents in Guangdong province or foreign residents with Shenzhen residence permit can apply. If the pass itself expires, you don't need to apply, but you can renew it.

18. Can I throw away the small note printed by the Hong Kong Immigration Department?

Walker khufu: Now you don't need to stamp even if you enter Hong Kong, but I will print you a small note indicating the date of entry and the time of stay. Don't throw it away!

I'd better keep this when I'm in Hong Kong. I once encountered a spot check on the streets of Hong Kong and needed to show this note. This is even more important if you go abroad with your passport, because your passport is not stamped with any entry and exit records. To go to landing visa, a personal country, you need to check the entry place of your passport, so you must take out this little note for verification. If you throw it away, it will sometimes be very troublesome.

19. My Hong Kong and Macao Pass is used twice a year. Must I wait until next year?

Xing zhe Lao Hu

No, you can use it twice a year and then you can renew it. Use it twice a year and renew it at any time. If you go to Hong Kong for more than three times a year, you can apply for multiple-entry visas. It should be noted that many water passengers take advantage of this loophole and repeatedly use renewal fees, so that they can not be limited to "one line a week", and as a result, some people will be restricted, so be careful.

20. What's the fastest way to get from Shenzhen to Hong Kong International Airport?

Traveler Lao Hu: It takes about half an hour by ferry from the home port of Taiziwan cruise ship in Shekou, Shenzhen (also known as the cruise center, with free car ferry at Shekou Pier) to the Hong Kong International Airport.

The flight interval is about one hour, but the disadvantage is that the cost is very expensive, about 220 Hong Kong dollars.

2 1, the home port of Taiziwan cruise ship in Shekou, Shenzhen takes a ferry to Hong Kong International Airport. How to go through the entry and exit procedures?

Walker Old Lake:

China departure formalities and boarding passes for some flights are handled directly at the home port of Prince's Bay cruise ship, and you can board the plane directly at the airport without going through the entry formalities in Hong Kong. Similarly, if you fly to the Hong Kong airport and go directly to Shenzhen by ferry, you don't need Hong Kong's entry and exit problems. However, if you can't book a registered flight at the home port of Prince Edward Bay, you can get your boarding pass at Haitian Pier in Hong Kong.

When entering or leaving Hong Kong, some people need help to get through the customs. Can you help them?

Passenger Lao Hu: It is recommended not to help carry any other people's belongings during customs clearance. If drugs or other prohibited items are hidden in it, if it is found that it is not admitted, it will face jail time or even greater legal problems. If someone asks you to help carry things through customs, you should think twice.
