The short answer
Hong Kong citizens do not need a visa to enter Turkey for stays of up to 90 days. No visa is needed before travelling to Turkey for a short tourist or business visit. Passport validity: the Ministry of Foreign Affairs advises holding a travel document or passport valid for at least six months from the date of arrival in Türkiye. Conditions: this route covers tourism and commerce. For other purposes, such as work and study, visas are issued by Turkish embassies and consulates. This covers tourist and short business visits only, not work, study or residence, and a border officer makes the final decision on entry in every case. Entry rules change without notice, so the requirement is read again from the official source on a schedule and the date above is the last time that happened. This was last checked on 8 September 2026.
