Thanks Kostas.

I got one-way permit to settlement in HK.

After reading that URL, I know it is called "Ordinary residence" at the first seven years when I move to HK.

Then I wonder what passport I have during the first seven years in HK? China passport or HK passport?

[berryplucker]

China I believe.

The same you have now I guess?

I got one-way permit to settlement in HK.

Then can I apply " Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Document of Identity for Visa Purposes" ? Thanks!

Hello all,
Any feedback are appreciated. Thanks!

Yes, you're right!
When you settle in HK, and before you become a PR in HK, you get the "Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Document of Identity for Visa Purposes" (DI)
After you've become a PR in HK, you can get the HKSAR passport

In any case, you would be a citizen of the People's Republic of CHina. Your nationality status would not be affected in any way
