The online Pre-arrival Registration for Taiwan Residents scheme will be implemented on September 1, the Immigration Department reminded today.

Eligible Taiwan residents can submit their pre-arrival registration through the e-Service platform Pre-arrival Registration for Taiwan Residents on the GovHK website free.

Successful registrants can visit Hong Kong with the self-printed Notification Slip for Pre-arrival Registration for Taiwan Residents and a travel document valid for re-entry to Taiwan for at least six months.

The department said pre-arrival registration further streamlines entry arrangements for Taiwan residents, boosting Hong Kong-Taiwan exchange.
