Do Hong Kong passport holders need a visa to visit GN?
HK ordinary passport holders need a visa for Guinea. The recommended route is the official Guinea eVisa, applied for online before travel via the PAF (Air and Border Police) portal at paf.gov.gn. Approval arrives by email as an Entry Visa Letter, which you print and present on arrival in Conakry, where biometric enrollment is completed. As of 2026, Hong Kong SAR ordinary passport holders require a visa to enter Guinea for tourism. Guinea is not listed among the destinations granting visa-free access or visa-on-arrival to HKSAR passport holders by the Hong Kong Immigration Department. The Republic of Guinea operates an official electronic visa (eVisa) system managed by the Police de l'Air et des Frontières (PAF) at paf.gov.gn. A tourist eVisa is single-entry, permits a stay of up to 90 days, and is approved within roughly 72 hours. Applicants must hold a passport valid at least 6 months, supply a return ticket and a passport photo, and a yellow fever vaccination certificate is required (yellow fever is endemic in Guinea). After online approval, travelers receive an Entry Visa Letter by email; this must be printed and presented at Conakry airport, where biometric data is captured before the visa is issued. Travelers should apply at least several days before departure and verify fees and document rules on the official PAF portal, as third-party agency sites charge higher service fees.
