The difference between one-way pass and visiting relatives pass

The difference between a one-way permit and a family visit permit is as follows:

1. The purpose of the certificate is different: One-way permit is a way for mainlanders to settle in Hong Kong, which can be compared to going back, because before they get the pass, they have to cancel their mainland accounts, then change into Hong Kong identity cards, and wait for a while to change into Hong Kong permanent identity cards, so that they can enjoy all the welfare policies of Hong Kong people. The family visit permit can be returned multiple times;

2. The validity period of the certificate is different: the one-way permit is valid for 6 months. If the one-way permit has expired, but it does not meet the requirements for applying for a Hong Kong permanent identity card, the Hong Kong identity card is still valid. There are three kinds of visiting cards: once every three months, many times every three months, and many times every year/kloc-0. Stay in Hong Kong or Macao for no more than 14 days with a three-month endorsement, and stay in Hong Kong or Macao for no more than 90 days with a three-month multiple endorsement from the date of first entry.
