Transit visa in Urumqi technical stop

Hi there,

I will flight from Vienna to Bangkok with China Southern airlines. I have a technical stop in Urumqi for 2 hours. After I will continue to Guangzhou airport where I have 1 hour to transfer the other aircraft heading to Bangkok.
My question is if i need the Chinese transit visa for technical stop in Urumqi. Somewhere I read that I need that, somewhere that I do not need the visa. I have Czech republic passport.
Thanks

If your route is Vienna-Urumqi-Guangzhou-Bangkok, then you need to apply for a China visa in advance.

Hi,

thank you for your answer. Yesterday evening I've got a message from airlines, that our flight was change. We have only one transfer in Guangzhou. So it is Vienna - Guangzhou - Bangkok. And way back is Bangkok - Urumqi - Vienna. I would like to ask you if I need the visa in this case?

Thank you,
Ondrej

What is your nationality? Generally speaking, you are eligible for 24 hour visa free transit so you don't need to apply for a visa.

Hi Iva,

probably I will apply the visa just for sure. I do not want to get to trouble.
