The legacy “approval letter” is gone for most. 90-day multiple-entry e-visas are now standard, processed entirely online.
🏢 No Sponsorship Required
For standard E-Visas, you no longer need an official invitation letter. Just provide the partner company’s address or your hotel details.
🛂 BNO Passport Holders
E-Visas are currently restricted for BNO. We strongly recommend HKSAR passports for the fastest processing and zero embassy visits.
