visas are British Dependent Territory Citizens and Briti≤ Nationals (Overseas). These travellers are people who hav had to go through the rigorous procedures necessary to acquire British passports. They have a record of good behaviour and of paying their way. They are returnable to Hong Kong, where they have right of abode. They are not by any definition an immigration problem.
FOR USE IN THE MARGINS WITH MEMBER STATES WHICH ALLOW VISA FREE ACCESS FOR HONG KONG BDTCS AND BN (0)S (BENELUX, GREECE, ITALY, IRELAND AND UNTIL 1 OCTOBER SPAIN)
- Thank you for maintaining visa free entry for Hong Kong BDTCS and BN (0)s. Continuity in arrangements which allow Hong Kong residents visa free access to third countries constitute an important confidence building measure for the Hong Kong community. These arrangements make a significant contribution towards sustaining confidence in Hong Kong.

Maintaining visa-free access for Hong Kong BDTCS and BN (0)s does not run any risk of leaving open a door to illegal Chinese immigration after 1997.
