does hong kong qualify as a second asian country?

Question

Can you fly from London to Hong Kong, stay in Hong Kong 1 day, then travel to Beijing, stay for one day then back to London using a 72 hour transit visa?

John Doe · Answer

Yes.

Kirsten · Answer

Would that itinerary work if the flight home to London had a connection back in Hong Kong, but was ticketed as Beijing-London? Thanks

No. LON-HKG-PEK-HKG-LON requires a visa in advance. LON-HKG-PEK-LON is ok for 72 hours free transit.
