I'm afraid no. You need to apply from either France where you live or from your home country.

Asked by Holger from GERMANY | Oct. 12, 2019 07:15

As a German Citizen I bought a house in Luxembourg and live there. I do not need a Resident Permit.

Would a Certificat de Residence suffice for a China Visa?

As far as I know, this Certificate de Residence can be used for applying for a China visa.

Asked by Carole from LUXEMBOURG | Sep. 18, 2019 05:50

Possibility of getting 24-Hour Transit Without Visa denied

Hello,

I am a Luxembourgish citizen and I will travel to Thailand in few months with a 18 hour layover in Shanghai. It seems that I am eligible for both the 24 hours and the 72 hours Transit Without Visa, however there has been an increasing amount of reviews online from people saying that they have been turned down and were not allowed to exit the airport, despite being eligible for this type of visa exemption.

So my question is:
- is there a guarantee that I will be let out of the airport to enter Shanghai under the 24 or 72 hour Transit Without Visa framework?
- if no, is it not better to apply for a single entry visa that will guarantee me entry?

Thank you very much in advance for your reply,
Carole

There is no guarantee that you will be allowed to leave the airport. It's upon the discretion of the immigration officers. However, since your layover length is long, you have a good chance to be allowed. To enhance the possibility, you can book a hotel in advance and get a hard copy of the hotel booking confirmation.
