Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for the duration of your stay | Your Lithuanian passport needs to be valid for the entire time you plan to stay in Hong Kong. No minimum validity beyond your departure date is required by Hong Kong immigration, but some airlines may ask for 6 months validity — check with your carrier before flying. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Hong Kong | Immigration officers routinely ask for a confirmed onward or return ticket at the border. Have a printed or digital copy of your flight booking ready. Overstaying the 90-day visa-free period can result in a fine and a ban from re-entering. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | While not always checked, having a hotel reservation or a letter of invitation from a Hong Kong resident can speed up the immigration process. Keep a copy on your phone or printed. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Sufficient money for your stay | Hong Kong does not publish a specific minimum amount, but you should have enough cash, credit cards, or bank statements to cover accommodation and living expenses for your trip. Immigration may ask if you look underprepared. | Recommended |
Visa-free for 90 days
Lithuanian passport holders do not need a visa for stays up to 90 days. This applies to tourism, business, and transit. No application or fee required.
Passport validity is strictly enforced
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from your date of entry. Airlines check this before boarding. If your passport expires sooner, renew it before you fly.
What happens at the border
1
Arrive at Hong Kong International Airport
Follow signs to 'Arrivals' and then 'Immigration'. There are separate queues for Hong Kong residents, e-Channel, and visitors. Join the 'Visitors' queue.
2
Present your passport and boarding pass
Hand over your Lithuanian passport and the boarding pass from your last flight. The officer will scan your passport and may ask a few questions (purpose of visit, length of stay, where you're staying). Answer clearly and briefly.
3
Provide onward ticket if asked
If the officer requests proof of onward travel, show your return or onward ticket (printed or on your phone). This is not always asked, but have it ready.
4
Receive entry stamp
The officer will stamp your passport with the date of entry and the allowed stay (usually 90 days). Check the stamp before walking away — confirm the dates are correct.
5
Collect luggage and proceed to customs
After immigration, go to the baggage claim carousel for your flight, then walk through the green 'Nothing to Declare' channel if you have no restricted items. If you have goods to declare (e.g., large amounts of cash, tobacco, alcohol), use the red channel.
