Question

Hi there,I am planning to fly from Tokyo to Shanghai via Air China and then Shanghai to Sydney via Qantas on the same day on my Australian passport. Do I need a visa of any sort? ( If I don't need a visa, i can enter the country and come out again? how does that work? ) And also is 3 hours enough for my connecting flight?

Mr.James · Answer

Visas are not required of Australian passport holders who transit through Pudong Airport or Hongqiao Airport of Shanghai, provided they hold valid passports, visas for the onward countries, final destination tickets and have booked seats, and stay in Shanghai for less than 48 hours.
