About:144-Hour Visa-Free Transit

Travelling to / from China

Is travel from Seoul to Shanghai (direct flight), travelling overland in China and then departure from Chongqing to Seoul via Hong Kong using Cathay Pacific (as a 2 hour connection) allowed under the visa-free transit?

Yes, of course it is. As you can see the most important detail of your itinerary is:

Seoul - Shanghai - Chongqing - Hong Kong

Everything before Seoul and after Hong Kong is not of any interest to the Chinese immigration authorities. Simply speaking, your itinerary complies with the key rule that clearly states that the immediate points before and after your mainland Chinese visit have to be in two different countries or eligible territories. Eligible territories are Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau.

You are good to go and I wish you a nice visit to China.
