chicago to beijing flight with layover in hong kong

Question

We are flying from Chicago to Beijing with a layover in Hong Kong. Is this considered a double-entry?

Steve · Answer

HK SAR  has its own entry and regulation rules different from mainland China. USA passport holder are exempt from visa to Hk for 90 days, but they have to apply for a visa to visit mainland China. Thus, you flight via Hk to Beijing is just regarded as a single entry to China.
