About:72-Hour Visa-Free Transit
Visa exemption for 72hr transit
The rules state that you can transit for 72 hours without a visa if you have an onward ticket to a 3rd country or region. I assume you can enter the City.
I bought a ticket from Holland to Beijing and was returning within 72 hours to a 3rd country France and was refused permission to fly without a visa. I was told that if I was flying to Australia or other countries or regions in that area it would have been ok. France is a country. Nowhere does it say you can only fly East.
Should I be compensated...who is right?
