ReplyTransit via Guangzhou from hk and to Taipei but with layover in hk
I’m planning a trip through Guangzhou and I will enter through hk and leave to go to Taipei. The question is whether this route is possible for the 144 day exemption rule? What if the flight to Taipei goes through hk as a layover and it’s one itinerary.

00ReplyYes, it's an eligible route for the 144 but your flight should be directly to Taiwan without layover.

00ReplyTake a fast ferry at SkyPier to Pazhou Ferry Terminal, then take Haizhu tram line 1 to Canton Tower, transfer to line 3 to Tiyu West Road, then transfer to line 3 north extension to the airport. It may take 4 hours in total.

00ReplyThe fastest way is to take a bullet train to Shenzhen in Mainland China with a duration of only 15-20min. As a passport holder of New Zealand, you don't need a visa and are granted a 15-day visa-free entry.If you are going to stay for over 15 days, a ready visa will be needed.

ReplyTravelling from HK to Guangzhou - 15days free visa
Hey, I'm going to HK in November.
Few days ago there was an announcement that there is 15 days visa free entry for Polish citizens.
Can I take a bullet train from HK to Guangzhou and get that visa there? Or there is another way to go to Guangzhou from HK with this 15 days free visa?
