floridababa Posted April 20, 2018 #2 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Your bet bet is to contact thee embassy. I am from USA so we needed a visa because we were staying after the cruise in Shanghai. We did not care for Shanghai we liked Singapore much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted April 21, 2018 #3 Share Posted April 21, 2018 From what you have said, you will need a multiple entry visa but it is best to confirm this with the Chinese embassy. There is usually a link with your foreign affairs department. https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/china/entry-requirements Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted April 21, 2018 #4 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Visas British nationals normally need a visa to enter mainland China, including Hainan Island, but not Hong Kong or Macao. If you’re transiting China, visa waivers are available in certain places. Contact the Chinese Embassy or the China Visa Application Service Centre before your proposed trip for further information. If you visit Hong Kong from the mainland of China and wish to return to the mainland, you’ll need a visa that allows you to make a second entry into China. It is your responsibility to check your visa details carefully. Don’t overstay your visa or work illegally. The authorities conduct regular checks and you may be fined, detained or deported (or all three). If you remain in China longer than 6 months, you may need to get a Residence Permit.
