Migrate to Hong Kong Student Visa

What is the Hong Kong Dependent Visa?

The Hong Kong Dependent Visa allows dependents (spouses, children, or parents) of individuals who are Hong Kong permanent residents, or holders of a Hong Kong Employment or Investment Visa, to live in Hong Kong. This visa is designed to help families stay together while one member works or resides in Hong Kong.

Dependents may include:

• Spouses: Legally married partners (same-sex marriage is also accepted).
• Children: Unmarried children under the age of 18, or those over 18 but financially dependent due to mental or physical disabilities.
• Parents: Parents of a Hong Kong resident, if they are financially dependent.

Eligibility Criteria

To be eligible for a Hong Kong Dependent Visa, the sponsor (the primary visa holder) must meet certain criteria, including:

• Being a Hong Kong permanent resident or a holder of a valid employment, investment, or other relevant visa.
• The sponsor must be able to prove they can financially support their dependents.
• Dependents must meet the general immigration requirements, including having no criminal record.

Application Process

1. Preparation of Documents: We help you gather and prepare all necessary documents, including proof of relationship, financial statements, and sponsor’s documents.
2. Application Submission: Once all documents are in order, we will submit your application to the Hong Kong Immigration Department.
3. Visa Approval: The processing time typically takes between 4 to 8 weeks. However, this can vary depending on individual circumstances or if additional information is required.
4. Visa Issuance: Upon approval, the dependent visa will be issued. If the applicant is overseas, they may need to submit their passport to the nearest Hong Kong consulate for stamping.
