The 7-day limit applies to the visit itself — if you plan to stay longer, work, or study in Hong Kong, you'll need to apply for the appropriate visa or permit before traveling.
Entry rules can change at short notice. Always confirm current requirements with the official Hong Kong immigration authority or your nearest embassy before booking.
