do i qualify if visiting while in taiwan?

Question

If I'm flying to Taiwan from the USA for a 2 week visit, and am planning to visit a friend in Shanghai for <72 hours during this trip (so would fly from Taipei to Shanghai back to Taipei, before returning to the States), do I qualify for the 72hr free transit?

Jim · Answer

Sorry, you can't because you depart and return to the same place, Taiwan. If you fly from Shanghai to Hong Kong/Macau and then return to USA, you can enjoy 72 hours free transit in Shanghai.
