I know this is highly specific but does anyone know the tourist visa fees for a non-western national with a U.S. Green Card? It's very difficult to wade through Chinese/HK websites that conveniently interchange visit visas with working visas..

What passport ? Normally one does not require a visa, however a few countries do require one - Check this list

Yes, I already know that a visa is required for this passport.. I am asking about fees, which are not very clear on that website, btw.

$135 USD. Isn't that a bit high?

I can't believe it. It's more than Brazil.

I believe it's in HKD. The page is not just for US residents, so why would it be in USD?

That is the HKD price (about 20 USD) for a work visa. I gather that a visitor visa would be no more (and likely less) than that.

Yes, my mistake. That sounds right.
Thanks a bunch, everyone!
