short visit, no transfer, 144 hour visa possible?

Question

Hello, my name is Tom and I work in Shanghai. My mother would like to visit me for a few days in April.I was wondering if it's possible for her to come on the 144 hour free transit without a flight going anywhere else. Just Europe - Shanghai and going back.Hope you know the answer!

well she can do a 144-hour visit as long as she's not going back to the same country she departed from. (Netherlands-Shanghai-Germany works but Netherlands-Shanghai-Netherlands does not).
