    UK-Philippines-Hong Kong

    There is a slight possibility that during my 6 weeks in Philippines I may be visiting Hong Kong for a few days. What requirements are needed for a UK citizen visiting via Philippines and do you think there will be any problems reentering Philippines after?

    I think there is no problem as long as you have an onward ticket available to show if asked. So on re entry to Fil you need to have your return ticket to Uk With you as proof of onward journey

    Done it many times when I worked in Hong Kong and my family were at our house in the Phils.

    As a Brit, you'll be given 6 months visa-free in Hong Kong.

    Any time you enter the Phils, you just need to show a ticket OUT to ANYWHERE. Doesn't have to be your home country.

    Cheap flights easily obtainable between the two countries, and only takes a couple of hours on the plane.

    So what you are saying is I do not need a visa to visit Hong Kong, unlike Philippines. So really it's a case of booking the ticket and visiting.

    Thanks for that info
