uk passport valid less than 6 months, can i still transit in beijing?

Question

I will be travelling to UK from Hong Kong and transiting in Beijing (48 hours between flights). My passport has 3 months validity left on it. Will I be allowed to transit without visa, it is clearly stated online that you cannot enter china without 6 months validity, however people on this website have said otherwise.Many Thanks,Nick

Nick, 72 hour free transit can cover your trip in Beijing, and no visa is needed then. Personally I don't think your less than 6 months passport will affect that. Don't worry!
