Here's How China's 240-Hour Visa-Free Transit works!

SIGN CHINA 2026 takes place 15–17 September 2026 in Shanghai, China.

Citizens from 55 eligible countries can take advantage of China's 240‑hour (10‑day) Visa‑Free Transit policy, including the U.S., Mexico, Lithuania, the Czech Republic, Indonesia, Ukraine and others.

To qualify, your itinerary must include three different destinations: Destination A → Destination B (Shanghai, China) → Destination C

Once you arrive in Shanghai, you can stay for up to 240 hours (10 days) before continuing your journey to your next destination.

A popular and convenient option is to include Hong Kong in your itinerary.

For example:

Your Home Country → Shanghai (SIGN CHINA 2026) → Hong Kong → Back to Your Home Country

Your Home Country → Hong Kong → Shanghai (SIGN CHINA 2026) → Back to Your Home Country

Since Hong Kong has its own immigration system, it is considered a separate destination for the purpose of the 240-hour visa-free transit policy.

✓ It helps qualify for the 240-hour visa-free transit.

✓ Explore two world-class destinations in one journey.

Experience the vibrant energy of Shanghai while also discovering Hong Kong's spectacular skyline, shopping, dining, and culture.

✓ Easy international connections.

Hong Kong International Airport is one of Asia's busiest aviation hubs, offering extensive global connections and often competitive airfares.
