Question

I am a Canadian passport holder and will be arriving in Shanghai on January 18, 2010 from Chicago then departing on a cruise from Shanghai to Bangkok, January 19, 2010. We will be spending the night at Shanghai hotel, will we need any type of visa.

Mr.JOHNNASH · Answer

As far as I know, Canadian citizens don't need a visa if they 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. They can go out of airport and visit Shanghai, Therefore, I think you don't need a visa, but you'd better call your airline to check it.
