72 hour visa arriving on cruise shipdeparting by air

Question

We arrive in beijing at 0600 on 15May on a cruise ship, then depart Bejeing at 1930 on the 17 May by air, by my calculation a total of 61.5 hours! Does this comply with the 72 hour restriction.Thanks Noel.

Klaus · Answer

Noel, no, you cannot enjoy the 72 hour free transit in Beijing because the 72 hour policy is only applicable to those traveling by flight. You should apply for a tourist L type or transit G type ahead of your journey.
