About:240-Hour Visa-Free Transit

do I qualify for 144h free visa transit in Nanjing

My trip is A : Osaka - Japan => B : Nanjing - China => C : Seoul - South Korea
I will stay maximum 96 h in Nanjing area to audit a factory.
Can you please confirm that I can benefit from the visa free transit ?
Thanks

Thanks for the answer. Due to a last minute change, my trip will most likely be different :
Tokyo (Japan) => A : Seoul (South Korea) => B : Nanjing (China) stay in Nanjing less than 96h => C : Paris (France) through Shanghai (China). Would I still qualify for the visa free transit ? My understanding is that as Shanghai and Nanjing are in the same free transit area, the domestic flight from Nanjing to Shanghai to get my flight back to Paris would not be an issue. If this domestic flight compromises the visa free transit, would it be acceptable to go by train from Nanjing to Shanghai and then catch the direct flight from Shanghai back to Paris ?

Yes, you can. Your itinerary, in case that you have mentioned your all stops within the itinerary is definitely eligible for 144 hour visa free transit in the entire Shanghai transit zone that encompasses Nanjing too.

I can see that you perfectly understand visa free transit rules :)

Yes, your second itinerary is also eligible for 144 hour visa free transit and you are allowed to use different airports within this area because this is all considered a Shanghai transit zone.

Also, you are perfectly allowed to take a domestic flight between Nanjing and Shanghai.
