Submit application

However, the customer service staff of Hong Kong immigrants will go to the Hong Kong Immigration Department to submit information, so as to avoid the loss of important information by international express delivery. For DIY applicants, you can choose to ask Hong Kong friends to help you submit it to the Immigration Bureau or mail it to the Immigration Bureau. It should be noted that the working hours of outstanding talents of the Immigration Department and mainland residents are from 8: 45 to 5: 00 from Monday to Friday, and they are closed on Saturdays and Sundays.
