About:24-Hour Visa-Free Transit

Can I enjoy 24h TWOV policy

Hello,
I have a trip from UK to Vietnam in which there are two transit stops in China. Land in SANYA airport at 18:10 and depart from Guangyong (CAN) 02:30 so total 8.5 hours in china. Can I enjoy 24h TWOV, policy? I got an advise that Transit incl. multiple stops within China (People's Rep.) is permitted at Guangzhou (CAN) only when the first transit point is Beijing (PEK)? If this correct so I can not take this trip since my first point is SANYA. I am looking forward to your reply. Many thanks, Hung.

24 hours TWOV applies. That exception for Guangzhou was in place for a few weeks quite a long time ago, but it has been dropped for at least a year now, I think.

Thanks a lot Saul. But a little bit confused here. Did you You mean 24 TWOV with entry permit stop in Giuangzhou. That is correct since Southern Airline stop free hotel service due to this change. But my question here WILL Guangzhou airport accept entry permit from Sanya aurport? In my ticket it has not shown Sanya as a main stop. It just gives a notice that the flight from London to Guangzhou has a technical stop at Sanya(SYX) for two hours. So WILL I get off the flight for custom clearance or not? I check and see no boarding to my flight from SanYa but get off from my flight is available since ticket from london to sanya on my flight cz652 availble for sale online. very worried that 2h not enough time for immigration check!!!!waiting for your advice! Many thanks, Hung.

You clear immigration at your first landing. Two hours is plenty of time. Temporary entry permit is separate from TWOV, it’s not guaranteed for same-day connections.
