Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must cover entire stay in Hong Kong | Your Mozambique passport must be valid for the full duration of your 14-day stay. Hong Kong does not enforce a 6-month validity rule for visa-free visitors, but your airline may ask for at least 6 months — check with them before departure. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Outbound travel proof | Immigration officers at Hong Kong International Airport routinely ask for a confirmed return or onward ticket. Have a printed or digital copy of your flight booking ready — they check this before stamping you in. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Carry a hotel confirmation or a letter from your host in Hong Kong. Officers rarely ask for it, but if you look uncertain or have no fixed address, they may request proof of where you're staying. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Sufficient cash or bank statement | Have at least 3,000 HKD in cash or a bank statement showing available funds. Immigration can ask to see proof you can support yourself for 14 days — especially if you arrive without a return ticket. | Recommended |
Passport validity is critical
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the day you enter Hong Kong. Airlines check this before boarding. If you're close to expiry, renew first.
No arrival card needed
Hong Kong scrapped arrival cards in 2023. You just present your passport at immigration. No forms to fill out.
