Потеря постоянного места жительства в результате 36-месячного отсутствия (некитайцы)
Гражданство в стране Hong Kong SAR

- A HK permanent resident who is NOT of Chinese nationality LOSES permanent resident status if absent from HK for a continuous period of not less than 36 months since ceasing to have ordinarily resided in HK (Cap.115 Sch.1 para 7(a)). This is a RESIDENCE-status loss, NOT a citizenship loss, and applies only to non-Chinese PRs. The Director of Immigration has no discretion to extend/waive the 36-month duration.

Whether periodic short visits interrupt/reset the continuous-absence clock for para 7 purposes is a fact-specific determination depending on the frequency, duration, and purpose of each visit.
This is explicitly NLR-flagged as requiring case-by-case Immigration Department assessment — do not assume a fixed formula (e.g., 'any visit resets the clock') without primary confirmation.
