Aevamo’s reading
The Immigration Department's 'Visit Visa / Entry Permit Requirements for the HKSAR' chapter is the operative publication that imposes a visa-free period or a visa requirement on each nationality for visits and transits to Hong Kong, published by the department that administers entry control under the Immigration Ordinance (Cap. 115); it creates the visitor entitlement rather than reporting one created elsewhere.
Kosovo appears in no enumerated row of the chapter and in no accepted 'type of travel document' entry, so its passport holder is granted no visa-free right by the table; the residual 7-day visa-free line reaches only 'Nationals of other foreign countries' holding otherwise acceptable passports, and the Immigration Department's unpublished administrative determination that a Kosovo passport is not an acceptable travel document for the HKSAR places a Kosovo passport outside that catch-all, so the holder must travel on an acceptable passport carrying a valid visa.

What this answer covers Limits & assumptions
Work and residence rights are separate from this check. This is the entry rule and the length of stay the instrument grants. It is not a decision about you: the officer at the border decides admission, and we do not evaluate the purpose of your trip, your passport's remaining validity, an onward ticket, funds, insurance or health requirements.
