No matter you are flying or walking into China, you do NOT need to have a Chinese Travel Visa. I was told by a customs officer in China. When I asked the Visa Office (on Broadway Vancouver), their answer was firm and clear that I need to have the visa. Do not trust the Visa Office here. If you do not believe what I said, please phone and ask the Chinese customs (in China). I wasted my time and $ and I don't want you guys to do the same.

you need to have HKID before you can apply for 回鄉證

If you fly out from Canada to China you need a visa, if you go to China from HK then HK ID and 回鄉證 that all you need

作者: eeq20 時間: 2012-4-30 13:49

for what I know, your 回鄉證 is your visa to China, it doesn't matter how you get there, you don't even need to present you HKID if you're only going to China. Your HKID is for getting into HK only.

that was the purpose of the posting. if you have 回鄉證 already, you don't need a visa. period.

Suppose a Hong Kong person walks into China, from a neighboring country, like Burma or Pakistan, he needs only a 回鄉證, but not the passport?

yes. 回鄉證 is the only piece of entrance permit you need.

urh...seems like you have forgotten something, we are talking about China here, over there the custom/border entry officers are certainly out-ranked by the embassy staff of their foreign office. Also policy in China changes faster than Vancouver's weather, would u like to be refused entry at the border check point?

That's right. I don't expect people here believe 100% of what I said (I wouldn't either). You are recommended to contact the Customs in China (BUT NOT THE CHINESE CONSULATE IN VANC.). I am bringing this topic up here to try help people save $ and time and I am not happy that the Vancouver Chinese Consulate lied to my face so they can earn my $.

interesting...what if u have hong kong passport, can u go into china by that??

作者: Yes-man 時間: 2012-5-4 13:03

that would be a NO. a lot of countries will just take a HK pp instead of a visa. but it's best to ask the customs.

i've seen some travel post about a hk ppl travel from london to hk by train, he has hksar passport, hkid, and 回鄉卡. no problem when entering from mongolia to china with 回鄉卡, 回鄉卡 is for hk/macau ppl to enter/exit mainland china no matter to/from which place

make sure you line up at the 中國公民 line at checkpoints

also, if you apply china visa with canadian passport, you can't renew your回鄉卡 when you back hk

China forbids dual citizenships. Just don't let them know you have both Canadian PPT and 回鄉卡.

Do they know you have both Canadian passport and 回鄉卡?

From Hong Kong's perspective, if you don't tell them you have dual citizenship, they pretend they don't know.

Recently, a lot of Hong Kongers wanted to get the $6000. So they went to the Chinese consulate to apply for their HKID card and HK passport. There is a question on the application form that asked if you have gained another citizenship.

passport有寫你既place of birth, 仲有, 你會唔會信加拿大唔會將資料提供比其他地方?

講真, 就算唔同阿爺講有外國籍, 當你apply香港政府工(不論邊d position)你都要declare有乜外地簽發既證件

又有一個grey area, 你話有hk ppl透過中領館搞id+passport, 特區passport係比有中國籍既香港永久居民先可以申請

所以有d大陸人搞左外國居留然後搞香港投資移民就係呢個原因, 如果入完籍搞香港投資移民係搞唔到回鄉卡

仲有個tips比無入籍/留學生/旅遊既hk/macau/tw ppl

如果突然有急事要響外地直接去大陸, 因為無/回鄉卡過期, 帶手頭上既passport+pic+楓葉卡or簽證去領事館搞比$40旅行證, 我N年前試過咁

始終有回鄉卡方便好多, 過深圳/珠海排回鄉卡通道快好多, 渣旅行證/簽證要排內地居民/外國人隊慢好多
