Visa for 9 hour transit to go out for dinner with friends in Shanghai?

Hi,

I'm traveling with my family with Swedish passports from Chicago to Singapore and have a 9 hour transit time in Shanghai, can we apply for the 144 hour visa to leave the airport during out transit to go out for dinner with friends in Shanghai?Appreciate your advise.

Thanks/ Maria

You don't need a visa because you will qualify for 24 hours transit without visa (not 144 hours). Whether you are granted a temporary entry permit to leave the airport is at the discretion of immigration, and for a 9 hour connection on one ticket it is quite likely that you will have to stay in the airport unless you have an overnight hotel confirmation.
