Visa-free travel between Grenada and Hong Kong

HONG KONG, September 10, 2010 - Hong Kong's Immigration Department announced Friday that Grenada has confirmed it will grant visa-free access to Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) passport holders visiting the country for a stay of up to 90 days.

The arrangement will come into effect on Sept. 20, 2010. Likewise, from the same day, Grenadian nationals may visit Hong Kong visa-free for a stay of up to 90 days.

"The arrangement means greater travel convenience for HKSAR passport holders and helps promote trade, business and tourism links between Hong Kong and Grenada," said a spokesman of HKSAR's government.

Grenada’s Honorary Consul in Hong Kong, Johnny Hon said that Grenadian nationals can now enter Hong Kong for 90 days visa-free and also get visas to enter China within one day.

“I am working hard to promote Grenada to all travel agents in Hong Kong,” he said.

Including Grenada, 143 countries and territories have granted visa-free access or visa-on-arrival to HKSAR passport holders.
