Shanghai 144 hour transit visa

Hugo, according to what you said, you will qualify for the 144 hour free transit in Shanghai.

Thanks so much for your answer. I gave you the patch in the back all right.

As I am first flying from Taipei to Hong-Kong before flying to Shanghai, do I have to enter the Hong Kong territory or can I just wait in the transit zone of Hong Kong before flying to Shanghai and return a few days later with a direct flight from Shanghai to Taipei .....to be able to benefit from the 144 hours free stay in Shanghai?

Hugo, just staying at the transit zone is not enough and you need to enter HK. In this case, you can get the entry and exit stamp on your passport to prove your entry to HK and then you can apply for the free transit in Shanghai.

Thank you very much for your confirmation. Another patch....
