guest62419	We are American and we are going to visit Hongkong for a week. During this time if we want to go to Shanghai for 2 days, can we qualify for the free 72 hour visa? Thanks.

I am a Greek citizen living temporarily in the Philippines and I want to travel to China. When I inquired at the PRC Consulate in Manila if I can apply for visa they told me that I can only apply in the embassy of PRC in Athens. My question is: Can I courier my passport to a friend or relative in Athens and authorize them to apply for the Multiple Visa to China and courier my passport back to Manila? Thanks / I.S.

GUEST40882	No, you can't do this. You need to go back to Athens to apply for the visa.

I have a United States Passport and I am a US citizen. I will be traveling to various countries in Asia. I would really like to visit Shenzhen, so I was wondering if I could do this and have the 72-hour visa apply:

1) I can book a flight from Manila (Philippines) to Guangdong. According to what I read, you can transit anywhere in the Guangdong province, which seems to include Shenzhen, is this correct?

2) Then, within 72 hours, I could then return back to Guangdong, and catch a flight to Bangkok.

So, what I would like to know, is it possible to do the 1st question, that is go to Shenzhen from Guangdong?

And 2nd, it does seem this should qualify for the 72-hour visa, or would there be some other reason it does not?
