About:72-Hour Visa-Free Transit

Can I get the 72 Hour Free Transit?

I have a flight from Siem Reap, Cambodia to Guangzhou, China on August 3rd 2013 (With a layover of 2 hours) Then another flight from Guangzhou to Beijing on August 3rd 2013.

I plan to stay in Beijing to tour around for 27 hours then I will return to Seoul, South Korea on August 4th 2013 (I currently live and have a visa for Korea)

Do I qualify for this??

And all of my flights are through China Southern.. so how do I apply??

Any help is greatly appreciated!!

3. For air passengers who are interested to visit Beijing/Shanghai during stopover, they should make sure put forward transit permit requests to the airlines taken in advance, so that the airlines can declare it to the airport customs before landing.

Thank you very much for the reply!! Do you know if you have to let the airline know before? Or is it a form that should be filled out on the airplane before landing?

I called China Southern Airlines to try to put forward a transit permit request and they kept telling me to call the embassy.

Thank you!
