Timor-Leste ordinary passports: seven-day Hong Kong visitor waiver
Hong Kong Immigration's current visitor table expressly assigns nationals of other foreign countries to a visa-free visitor stay of up to seven days. Timor-Leste is classified only through that affirmative residual, not through absence from the named rows.
- The express current residual is limited to a visit not exceeding seven days for the foreign-country passport cohort.
- The current Immigration Department separately identifies Timor-Leste in a visitor-facilitation country table; that scheme's invitation-only benefits do not define this ordinary-passport baseline.
- For work, study, establishing or joining a business, residence, or a visitor stay longer than the allowed visa-free period, the current Immigration Department guidance requires the appropriate visa or entry permit before travel.
- Normal immigration requirements, funds, onward or return travel, passport validity, individual admission and security controls remain separate.
