[chuang]

Hello there....Has anyboby been to Hongkong with his Thai g/f lately, is there any problem for her to enter Hongkong as I was told that the Hongkong immigration is rather sticky with female Thai national.

Appreciate your advice...thanks

HK Immigration are always a little wary of the female form from Thailand, Philippines and Indonesia and I have noted in the past that after a few basic questions they are able to tell the innocents from the guilty if you get my drift.

The fact that she will be with you and of course you have return tickets as well as a hotel booking to show then I see no problems. Just dont rock their boats as they can be equally good at rocking yours also. They have a job to do so just respect that and enjoy the crowded dirty streets of HK

Thai citizens are free to go to HKG all they want. Visa-on-arrival is available to them and you should have no problems. I have been there with my wife multiple times and nary a problem. Here is the timatic info just in case you need some reassuring:

Passport required (must be valid at least 1 month

after period of intended stay).

Visa not required for stay of max. 1 month.

In all cases, if passenger holds:

- APEC card (Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation); or

- travel pass issued under the Hong Kong (SAR China) travel

pass Pilot scheme (see: For details, click here item 13.):

visa not required.

Visitor must hold:

- return/onward tickets (unless when in transit to either

mainland China (People's Rep.) or Macao (SAR China) by land

or sea); and

- all documents required for next destination; and

- sufficient funds.

refusal of passenger and a fine of HKD 10,000.- for carrier.

Went to HK March this year with my g/f. First time for her out of Thailand, and no problems at all at Immigration. She loved it there.

Enjoy yourself.

Anyone know how much "sufficient funds" are required?

I'm coming from Canada, and will meet my Thai gf in HK. So, when she arrived in HK, I wonder how much money she needs to have with her?

Would be good to have copy of hotel reservation, return air ticket, maybe a credit card and 'some' cash.

Should not be a problem did it last October.

Had a great time at Disneyland
