Question

Hello everyone,I was wondering if it was possible to connect two flights (one coming from Tokyo, the other going to Paris) in the Shanghai Airport just by staying in the INTERNATIONAL ZONE of the airport, and this without needing to get a new Chinese visa ?I have found a flight Tokyo-Shanghai which would arrive a 9:20 pm and another flight from Shanghai to Paris which would leave at 11:55 pm.Since I was told it's complicated to get a Chinese Visa in Japan for foreigner, I was wondering if this solution seems doable ?Thanks a lot for your advices.

Hello,Mr.VivienVisa is not necessary for passengers from any other countries who come to China and will only stay within airports no more than 24 hours. Citizens of France can make an air transit in Shanghai Pudong and Hongqiao Airports without a transit visa if your period of stay does not exceed 48 hours, showing valid passport, visa of your destination country and connecting flight ticket. You are allowed to get out of the airport.
