Hi, we are planning to fly to Hong Kong, then take a train from Hong Kong to Shanghai before flying from Shanghai to Osaka, Japan. Is it possible to request a 144hr free transit at Hong Kong train stations or is this only possible if we catch a flight to Shanghai instead? Your help is appreciated, thanks in advance!

You can apply for the 144h twov after arrive at the Shanghai railway station.

Thanks, can I actually board the train in Hongkong without having any Chinese visa? Isn't there a boarder control before entering the train?

When you board a train in Hongkong, you don't need a Chinese visa.
