Can I go to China after I overstayed in Hong Kong?

Upvote:9

As someone who's lived 11 years and change in HK, and who's friends with a HK Police commander, I can tell you that you will face an uphill battle, for a few reasons.

HK is very unforgiving about immigration issues. You have an immigration record in HK.
HK's attitude towards South East Asian countries, including and maybe even especially the Philippines, a country with a very large community of transient workers in HK, isn't exactly generous.
HK Immigration is fully computerized, and has been for a long time. It will know who you are. And so will Mainland China. Remember that HK is part of China, and the Chinese consulates overseas house the HK visa section too. Information is shared, one-way anyway.

Bottom-line, go ahead and apply. That's the safest way to know. But be prepared to lose the visa application fee.
