Hong Kong Health Code｜Can still apply without proof of address

"Hong Kong Health Code" will start online application at 9 am next Friday (December 10). Applicants must provide ID card number and proof of address.

The Secretary for Innovation and Technology Xue Yongheng pointed out that citizens can use electricity bills or water bills as proof of address, but if citizens cannot provide relevant proofs, the authorities will send a letter to the address with an account password for them to open an account.

In addition, citizens who apply for the "Hong Kong Health Code" are required to upload records of "Travel with peace of mind".

Although the mobile application has been implemented for some time, it still causes inconvenience to the elderly or the visually impaired. There have been groups that advocated replacing it with Octopus.

However, Xue Yongheng believes that the practice of management on behalf of others is not necessarily good: "In the past 20 to 30 days, everyone has been the same. There are always differences. This will make young people or the elderly more aware of using smart phones to make records. , It’s more effective to protect yourself.”

Therefore, the authorities have reserved enough time for everyone to familiarize themselves with the application before customs clearance.

However, he emphasized that the download time of the "Kangkang Code" has nothing to do with the customs clearance quota, and urged everyone not to rush to apply.

If you have time, download it first.” He also shared that before the launch of the "Kangkang Code", he had tried to open an account and download it. It only took a few minutes to be very convenient.
