Tourist visa to Hong Kong - financial proof for high school grad and am I eligible?
What kind of documentation can I provide for a Hong Kong tourist visa regarding proof of sufficient funds as a legal adult/18 but is a (soon) high school graduate? The purpose of travel is a leisure trip with friends - a “grad trip”.
There will be no proof of labour contract. Does a sponsorship letter from an individual qualify? Along with documentation of their bank balance and financial standing, but not my own, considering I’m still in school. The individual does not live in HK and is not going on the trip. I guess I am asking about the issue “adults not being able to sponsor other adults” if that’s the rule for visas.
Please help advise on what would be best to do in this situation. Or help confirm that there would be zero success at a visa? Thank you so much
