I booked a plane ticket to Hong Kong in order to transfer to Bangkok. Is it okay without a visa?

According to the regulations of the Hong Kong Immigration Department, holders of China passports, third-country visas and joint tickets can stay in Hong Kong for no more than seven days without visa, and there is no need to apply for a travel permit to and from Hong Kong and Macao and a Hong Kong endorsement. If the visa country is landing visa or visa-free, the hotel confirmation form is also recognized.

The Hong Kong and Macao Pass, commonly known as the Two-way Permit, is a travel document issued by People's Republic of China (PRC) and the Exit-Entry Administration of the Ministry of Public Security of China to mainland residents in China for private travel, visiting relatives, business, training, employment, study abroad and other non-official activities.

Transit passengers who hold valid passports of China citizens and travel to other countries or regions through Hong Kong can stay in Hong Kong for seven days at a time, as long as they meet the general entry requirements, including holding valid entry documents for their destinations and confirmed onward bus/boat/air tickets for overseas travel, without obtaining entry approval in advance.

Personal travel G endorsement can be valid for three months or one year, and the number of times can be once or twice. Generally, the maximum stay is 7 days at a time, but there are also longer visas. Up to now, according to the announcement of the Hong Kong Immigration Department, there are 2 1 prefecture-level cities in Guangdong Province and 28 prefecture-level cities/municipalities directly under the Central Government in other provinces. In addition, Shenzhen registered residents can apply for multiple endorsements a year, but they can only go once a week (according to the new regulations issued on April 3, 201May), which is called "once a week".

legal ground

Article 6 of the Interim Measures for the Administration of China Citizens Traveling to and from Hong Kong and Macao for Private Affairs stipulates that mainland citizens traveling to and from Hong Kong and Macao for private purposes must apply to the exit-entry administration department of the municipal or county public security bureau where their household registration is located.
