In a surprise move, Hong Kong has withdrawn the no travel visa policy for Indians from January next year.
Now, Indian tourists will have to pre-register to enter the SAR (Special Administrative Regions) of China. So far, for a 15-day stay, there were no formalities as the SAR allowed to land in Hong Kong without any visa formalities.
It was learned that the step may have been taken as the no visa facility may have been abused by some.
تتمتع هونغ كونغ بتمثيل سياحي نشط في الهند للترويج للسياحة إلى الوجهة الشهيرة ، والتي تعمل أيضًا كنقطة انطلاق للسفر إلى ماكاو. في تطور آخر ، جعلت تايلاند سفر الهنود أرخص قليلاً عن طريق خفض رسوم التأشيرة عند الهبوط.
It is to be seen in days to come if these two developments will lessen travel by Indians to Hong Kong and to Thailand.
