About:24-Hour Visa-Free Transit
Transit Without Visa TWOV UK>China>Taiwan
I am a British citizen, travelling from London > Shanghai > Taipei. I have 3 days in Shanghai and have a ticket booked already (same airline) from Shanghai to Taipei. I will be staying with a friend in Shanghai. On my return, I'll be taking the same route but just with 5 hour layover in Pudong airport so won't be leaving the airport.
I assume I will be able to leave the airport on the way there on TWOV (transit without visa) as it's within the 240hrs and also Taiwan counts as a third country. Please confirm? Also is there anything else I need to print out aside from my flight details for Shanghai>Taipei and details of the address I'll be staying at in Shanghai? Anything else I need to know?
Thank you!
