SHORT-TERM WORK VISA/PERMIT

According to the Hong Kong Immigration Department, a short-term work permit is mandatory for all performances — whether paid or unpaid. If you are unsure whether this requirement applies to your case, we recommend contacting us to avoid any potential issues with immigration authorities.

Over the years, we have built strong partnerships with local promoters and venues across Hong Kong. This enables us to ensure that international artists have a smooth and seamless experience when performing in the city and receive their work visas on time.

Visa Approval

Reasons Why Short-Term Work Visa Applications May Be Denied

  • Previous immigration violations — Any history of overstaying, working without proper permission, or breaching conditions of stay in Hong Kong or elsewhere.

  • Background or security concerns — Criminal records, previous refusals, or other flags during background checks.

  • Timing issues — Applying too close to the event date, leaving insufficient processing time.

While we have a strong track record of successfully assisting international artists and promoters with short-term work visa applications in Hong Kong, approvals are ultimately at the discretion of the Hong Kong Immigration Department. There is no guarantee of approval, and each application is assessed on its individual merits. We recommend submitting complete and accurate documentation to maximise your chances of success.
