UK passports, if holidaying in Taiwan, flying from London, are we eligible for the 144 hour transit visa if we plan a stopover in Shenzhen? Thank you in advance

Georgia, if your route is London - Shenzhen - Taiwan and you have no other layovers en route to Taiwan, you can enjoy the 144h visa-free transit in Shenzhen.

Sharon, I know that's normally the case but I wanted to check that Taiwan actually counted as a third country even though it comes up as Tailwan, China on the airlines sites. Obviously I don't want to arrange flights that allow for 4-5 days in Shenzhen and then find I can't leave the airport. That would be a bit boring.

Yes, it counts as a third country in terms of immigration affairs.
