About:FAQ of Chinese Visa Application

Do we need a visa to get out of an airport in order to visit a town for a few hours?

My son will fly from Tapei to NY. He will stay in Shanghai 18 hours. Does he need a visa to get out Pudong airport and to visit a little the town?
if he could, he would stay 42 hours. Would a visa be necessary?
Thank you for your advice.
Best regards.

With French passport, your son can go out of the Pudong airport without visa if his stay in Shanghai is less than 48 hours.
