Is there a time limit for being refused entry to Hong Kong?

There is a time limit, and the contact time is generally about 1-2 months.

Hong Kong is a special administrative autonomous region of China, so entering and exiting Hong Kong is different from going to other provinces and cities. You need a special visa, which is what ordinary people usually call a Hong Kong and Macao pass.

If you frequently enter Hong Kong and your visa is not a business visa, you will be refused entry by the customs. Generally, it can be resolved in about two months. If you encounter special circumstances, it may take a long time. It is recommended to send an email to the customs to explain the situation and ask for the reason. First, if you frequently enter Hong Kong without a clear legitimate reason, the customs will consider your purpose to be impure, resulting in your next entry being refused. When this happens, the ban is usually lifted in about two months. It is recommended to send an email to the customs to ask for the reason and actively provide materials on the reason for entry.

Secondly, when applying for a visa, you can apply for one visa for multiple lines, so it won’t be so troublesome. If you apply for a tourist visa but engage in short-term work in Hong Kong, you may be investigated for frequent entry.

Third, if you are refused entry because you have violated any immigration regulations (violating the law in the Mainland/Hong Kong), then you will never be able to enter. Because your case record is already stored in the Immigration Department computer.

So we should treat it concretely and communicate actively.
