The U.S. Consulate General Hong Kong and Macau, announced recently that it is offering all classes of immigrant and nonimmigrant visa services.

While the consulate aims to process cases as soon as practicable, it is stated that there is likely to be increased wait times for completing such services due to substantial backlogs.

Note, that eligible immigrant visa applicants will be contacted to schedule an appointment. If you have an urgent matter and need to travel immediately, please email support-hongkong@ustraveldocs.com
