Online Reporting of Immigration Offences

Immigration offences such as overstaying or the employment of illegal workers can now be reported fully online. You can also complete the report form online, print it out and send it to the Immigration Department by fax or post.

Online Service

To report immigration offence(s) online, just complete the Online Immigration Offences Report Form and upload it with copies of additional information such as digital photos or relevant documents (if any). You can access the service through the following link:

The more sections of the form completed and additional information provided, the easier it will be for the Immigration Department to investigate the offence(s) and/or refer it to other government bureaux, departments and organizations.

Please do not report offence(s) committed outside Hong Kong as the Immigration Department only has jurisdiction in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. You should also be aware that knowingly providing any false information or misleading the Immigration Department is an offence in law.
