Traveling to Hong Kong
For Finnish citizens traveling to Hong Kong, a valid passport is sufficient as a travel document. A visa is not required for stays of up to 90 days. However, please ensure that your passport is valid for at least one month beyond your intended stay.
Non-Finnish citizens should check the passport and visa requirements at the relevant country's representative office before making travel arrangements. It is the responsibility of the passenger to ensure the validity and condition of their passport.
Please note that the tour operator cannot be held liable for any damages incurred by passengers who are unable to travel due to insufficient travel documents.
