Visa Application & Insurance
Training Visa
Please note that each student-teacher must have a training visa before his/her arrival to Hong Kong. The training visa is only applicable for training purposes, i.e. not for study purposes.
Prospective student-teachers must apply for a valid training visa through GAO if they are to join the programme.
How to apply
- Complete Part A of the Visa Application Form (ID992A) affixed with a passport-sized photo. Please read through A Guidebook for Entry for Training in Hong Kong prepared by the Hong Kong Immigration Department.
- A copy of your passport info page containing your personal details, dates of issue and expiry.
- A copy of your financial proof in English. It can be a letter issued by your bank or bank statement, payroll slips, documents for your loan and welfare, income proof of your sponsor, scholarship, etc.
- Please read through the Personal Information Collection Statement and Privacy Policy Statement. Please submit the ORIGINAL statement with your signature.
- A Transcript of studies issued by your home institution.
Necessary documents should be sent to Global Affairs Office (GAO) by courier before a specific deadline. GAO will then submit the application to the Hong Kong Immigration Department for approval. It normally takes around six to eight weeks to process a visa application. Once granted, an e-Visa will be sent to you via email.
There is a non-refundable and non-transferrable fee for student visa application. Payment should be settled by credit card once you are accepted.
