Hong Kong (SAR China) to Uruguay visa requirements

HKSAR ordinary passport holders can enter Uruguay visa-free for tourism for up to 90 days. No visa, eVisa, or visa-on-arrival is required. Holders of a Hong Kong SAR ordinary passport do not need a visa to visit Uruguay for tourism or other short visits. The Hong Kong Immigration Department's official Visa-free Access / Visa-on-arrival list confirms Uruguay (entry 168) grants 90 days of visa-free stay to HKSAR passport holders, with no special remarks or conditions. Uruguay is in South America and is NOT part of the Schengen Area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply. The 90-day stay can typically be extended once for a further 90 days by applying in-country to the Direccion Nacional de Migracion. At entry, travelers should be prepared to show a passport valid for the duration of stay, proof of onward or return travel, and evidence of sufficient funds and accommodation. There is no entry fee for visa-free tourist admission. Because admission is always decided by the border officer on arrival, carry supporting documents. This route involves no recent visa-policy changes affecting HK passport holders as of May 2026.
