starting cruise in hong kongending cruise in shanghai

Question

My clients will be staying in Hong Kong 2 days prior to cruise.  Cruise also stops half way through in Bejing and clients are going to stay in hotel for 2 nights instead of the ship and they will end in Shanghai for 2 nights.  Does this mean they do not need a visa.  Total on their own is 96 hours not including Hong Kong.  Does this mean they do not need an entry permit.

Edward · Answer

Ann, considering the situation, they need to apply for an entry permit for their journey and they should apply for a tourist L type ahead of their trip.
