The business visa is issued to foreign nationals who intend to travel to Hong Kong for business purposes. Hong Kong business visa does NOT permit its holder to take up paid/unpaid employment while in Hong Kong. The business visa, however, allows its holder to conclude contracts, submit tenders, examine or supervise the installation/packaging of goods or equipment. Holders of this type of visa are permitted to attend trade fairs and exhibitions. With the business visa, you may attend short-term business summits or other business meetings and settle compensations or other civil proceedings. While the business visa allows you to attend an event to deliver speech(es) or presentation(s), it does not permit you to be paid for speaking or presenting at the event (other than provision of accommodation, passage, meals, etc. relating to the event, or the reimbursement of such expenses). A visa application form must be fully completed and signed before submission. You are advised to crosscheck for any errors and adhere strictly to the submission guideline so as not to delay the processing of your visa application.

You are also required to obtain a letter of invitation from the partner company/organisation in Hong Kong. This letter must state the purpose of your visit and who will take care of all your expenses (your company or the partner company) while in Hong Kong. If there exist previous trade relations between your company and the partner company in Hong Kong, you should provide proof of this. This could be bills of lading, customs clearance, receipts of payment or any similar documents. If you are attending a trade fair or exhibition, you must submit a letter issued by a trade body to confirm your attendance at such an event.
