Hong Kong media say the Australian star was seen out and about in the city two days after arriving.
Nicole Kidman has become the latest Hollywood star to come under fire for circumventing strict quarantine rules for international travellers.
This is despite the region having some of the strictest rules in place, with up to 21 days' quarantine required.However, Hong Kong's Commerce and Economic Development Bureau sent out a statement on Thursday in response to questions about "overseas film personnel" and quarantine, explaining restrictions are waived "to carry out designated professional work".
"Which department gave her the right?" one users asks. Another asks: "Who gave her the right to be exempt?" Citizens living in "high risk" countries - a list which already includes the UK and is expanding to places like the US and Spain tomorrow - are only allowed to enter if vaccinated and must still complete three weeks' quarantine.
