Do Hong Kong passport holders need a visa to visit ZM?

Hong Kong SAR ordinary passport holders do NOT need a visa for tourist or short visits to Zambia. Hong Kong is on Zambia's official "Nationals Who Do Not Require Visa" list, so you are admitted visa-free, typically for stays of up to 90 days. Zambia treats Hong Kong SAR passport holders as visa-exempt. The Zambia Department of Immigration's official "Nationals Who Do Not Require Visa" register lists Hong Kong (entry #67), and the visa-policy reference data shows a permitted visa-free stay of up to 90 days for tourism and short visits. This places Hong Kong in Zambia's most favourable entry category, so no eVisa, visa-on-arrival fee, or pre-application at a Zambian mission is required for a normal tourist trip. Travellers are still subject to standard entry conditions: a passport valid at least six months with blank pages, proof of onward/return travel, sufficient funds, and a yellow-fever vaccination certificate if arriving from or transiting (over 12 hours) a yellow-fever risk country. Zambia is in Southern Africa and is not part of the Schengen area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply. Because some commercial visa-aggregator websites still incorrectly state that Hong Kong needs an eVisa, this guide relies on the Zambian government's own exemption list as the authoritative source. Conditions can change, so reconfirm with the Zambia Department of Immigration or your airline before departure.
