The Immigration Department (ImmD) announced today (November 14) that, effective from November 15, 2025, nationals of Nepal who are in direct transit by air and do not leave the airport transit area may transit the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) visa-free. Other visa arrangements for nationals of Nepal coming to the HKSAR will remain unchanged.
An ImmD spokesman said, "Nepal is along the Belt and Road. Under the Belt and Road Initiative, this visa-free transit arrangement will bring travel convenience to visitors from Nepal and enhance Hong Kong's status as an international aviation hub."
