Hong Kong’s government will relax travel restrictions on Taiwanese visitors next year as part of its effort to improve business and tourist links, Chief Executive Donald Tsang Yam-Kuen was quoted saying.
The Standard said according to his annual policy address, Hong Kong’s immigration department would lift existing restrictions that limit Taiwanese visitors to two entry applications each within any 30-day period.
The government will also extend the limit of stay in Hong Kong for Taiwanese visitors from 14 days to 30 days for holders of certain visas, he was quoted saying.
Tsang said he had appointed Financial Secretary John Tsang to head an inter-departmental group which will look into plans to boost closer economic and trade ties with Taiwan.
