Hi!
I have Estonian citizenship (EU). I will arrive in Beijing from Stockholm 10.01.2024 early morning and fly away to Bangkok same day evening. May I visit Beijing during my 10 hours staying in Beijing?

Maksim, the first and the most important detail is that your itinerary will be covered by 24 hour visa free transit and you do not need any kind of visa. Now, you should be aware that the exit from the airport is not a passenger's right because it implies the entry into China. However, if those in transit have longer layovers, then Chinese authorities usually grant a temporary entry permit in order to allow those in transit to enjoy some time in the city. So, you will approach a transit counter (desk) immediately upon your arrival where you will apply for a temporary entry permit to be allowed to exit the airport. This application is free of any charge. After a short check, the official will decide whether you will be granted a permit or not. Based on long time experience I can predict that you will be successful in your intention.
