Boundaries of Hong Kong information


Map of the boundaries of Hong Kong since 1997, dotted in grey dash lines surrounding Hong Kong.

The Boundaries of Hong Kong, officially the Boundary of the Administrative Division of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China[1][2] (simplified Chinese: 中华人民共和国香港特别行政区行政区域界线; traditional Chinese: 中華人民共和國香港特別行政區行政區域界綫), is a regulated administrative border with border control in force under the One country, two systems constitutional principle, which separates the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region from mainland China, by land border fence of 30 km (19 mi) and maritime boundary of 733 km (455 mi),[1] enforcing a separate immigration and customs-controlled jurisdiction from mainland China.

The boundaries of Hong Kong are patrolled and controlled by the Hong Kong Police Force and its Marine Region and the Immigration Department at land and sea. The land boundary also includes a buffer zone, known as Frontier Closed Area.

Border Road is enclosed by fences
