At Chinese New Year 2018 I went back to Blackburn, Lancashire the town of my birth in northern England.

It was bloody cold, right before the Beast from the East!

    Hi there!

    I am currently on a Working Holiday Visa which will expire at the end this month. Do you know if it is possible to have my visa swapped to a Visitor visa on my WHV’s expiration without leaving Hong Kong?

    Ordinarily I would have been able to just dash to Macau and back on the day of my visa’s expiration but with the borders closed that is impossible. I hope there would be some way of being issued a visitor visa from within HK but I can’t find the answers to this anywhere.

    Thanks for your help.

      Yes – approach ImmD Tower 1 or 2 days before WHV expiry and ask for permission to remain as a visitor. They should grant you 30 days assuming you can show proof of accommodation and sufficient funds to cover those 30 days.
