traveling to vietnam via bejing

Question

just to double check with timing we are flying from London to Saigon (Vietnam) by Bejing with short stop over 5 h, but on the way back from Saigon to London we want to stop over in Bejing for 3 days, would this count? our flight would be 11 am on 3 May and flight back on 6 May but 5 pm. is this correct? 72 hour free transit counts till midnight on 6 May? pls advise before I will buy ticket

Rob · Answer

That is incorrect. You are limited to no more than 72 hours transit in Beijing without a visa.

Yes, the Great Wall is within Beijing administrative area.

Hi looks like I am planning the same trip, but with the stop over in Beijing on the way to Vietnam. Flight lands on a Saturday at 13.05. Flights depart 20.35 everyday. Is the time calculated from midnight on Saturday not time of landing - thus I can book my flight for Tuesday ? Is this correct? Thanks

CDKING · Answer

72 hours based on time or arrival so Saturday at 13.05 to Tuesday at 13:05
