Hong Kong eases visa rules for Vietnamese citizens

The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (China) has decided to issue working visas to Vietnamese citizen and ease visa rules for businesspeople and tourists from the country from October 25. This is considered an important milestone in promoting relations between the two sides.

Previously, due to a number of reasons, Hong Kong maintained a visa restriction policy for Vietnamese workers, businessmen and tourists. This has more or less hindered the promotion of relations between the two sides. The new visa policy, therefore, is expected to make drastic changes.

The relationship between Vietnam and Hong Kong has been maintained and developed strongly in recent years. Hong Kong's new visa policy will certainly contribute to further developing the relations between the two sides in the coming time./.
