How to restore the Hong Kong and Macau Passport after it is declared invalid?

When your Hong Kong and Macau Pass is declared invalid, the restoration process involves re-applying for a new pass or endorsement. First of all, since the cancellation may be due to the pass itself or the visa issue, you need to go to the domestic immigration management department to clarify the reason and start a new application process. If the situation is urgent, you may consider consulting a Chinese travel agency to inquire about the feasibility of a one-time entry and exit visa, but this is not a routine route.

When applying for a new certificate, the required materials include: the old Hong Kong and Macao Pass that has expired and needs to be returned; at the same time, bring copies and originals of the household register and ID card, as well as the photos required for applying for the new certificate. Please ensure that all documents are in order for your endorsement or pass renewal to proceed smoothly. Be sure to plan ahead so you have enough time to complete this process if necessary.
