According to a report from the Government News, Hong Kong (China)’s Chief Executive John Lee has announced that it will relax the visa policy in respect to employment of Vietnamese talent and the criteria for Vietnamese applying for multiple entry visas for business and travel, starting from October 25.

In March, the Hong Kong Tourism Board announced it would be giving away 80,000 round-trip air tickets to residents in Southeast Asian countries, including 8,800 tickets for Vietnamese residents.

The initiative is part of a campaign sponsored by Airport Authority Hong Kong to again welcome global tourists to the Chinese city after more than three years of Covid restrictions.
