| VisaHQ will present you with a clear path forward, list of specific requirements, filing fees, and processing times | Immigration lawyers would normally avoid the full transparency and bring you along one step at a time after you commit to the process |
| VisaHQ is fully transparent with all filing fees and service fees upfront | An immigration lawyer would normally charge by the hour and would add various fees along the way |
| 24/7 Support available via chat, phone, or email, regardless of what country you live in | Very few immigration lawyers provide continuing on demand support. Getting in touch may be challenging |

Frequently asked questions about the Hong Kong work visa
What type of work permit do I need to work in Hong Kong?
You will typically need an Employment Visa, which is required for foreign nationals who wish to work in Hong Kong. The specific type of visa you need may vary based on your job, so check the Hong Kong Immigration Department for details.
What are the basic requirements to apply for a work permit in Hong Kong?
To apply for a work permit, you generally need a confirmed job offer from a Hong Kong employer, proof of relevant qualifications and experience, and evidence that no local candidate can fill the position.
How long does it take to process a work permit application for Hong Kong?
The processing time for a work permit application is usually around 4 to 8 weeks; however, it can vary depending on the complexity of your application and the current workload of the Immigration Department.
Can I apply for a work permit while still in Canada?
Yes, you can apply for a work permit from Canada. However, you must have a valid job offer from a Hong Kong employer before submitting your application.
What documents do I need to submit with my work permit application?
Common documents required include a completed application form, your passport, a passport-sized photo, the employment contract, educational qualifications, and any relevant professional experience certificates.
Do I need to undergo a medical examination for a work permit in Hong Kong?
A medical examination is generally not required for most work permit applications in Hong Kong. However, it may be required for certain jobs, particularly those in healthcare.
Can my family accompany me when I move to Hong Kong for work?
Yes, your spouse and dependent children can accompany you to Hong Kong. You will need to apply for dependent visas for them once your work permit is approved.
What should I do if my work permit application is denied?
If your application is denied, you can request a review of the decision. It’s important to understand the reasons for the denial and address any issues before reapplying.
How long is the work permit valid once issued?
The validity of a work permit in Hong Kong typically lasts for the duration of your employment contract, up to a maximum of two years, after which you can apply for an extension.
Are there restrictions on job changes while on a work permit in Hong Kong?
Yes, if you wish to change jobs while in Hong Kong, you must apply for a new work permit. This is necessary because your current permit is tied to your original employer.
