1. If I arrive China midnight, I’m I allowed to stay/sit at the airport lounge till dawn?
Of course, you can do that. Chinese airports are huge and spacious.
and there is another option.
The best way is to find a hotel near the airport, it is not expensive, only cost 50-70$ ine night including breakfast and shower,it will make you have a good rest for next travel.
2.If I enter Beijing on a 144 hours transit visa, when does the 144 hour period start from?
3.Would the following itinerary pass for the 144 hour visa?This is using a British passport.
A: It is totally fine, but it is limited to traveling within Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, and could not go to other provinces. DM me if you need any help in Shanghai.
4.Can I stay in China for 7-8 hours?
Q: I am a digital nomad and currently visiting Vietnam. I hold an Afghan passport.

5.What happens to a foreigner’s visa status in China if their Chinese spouse passes away?
If a foreigner’s Chinese spouse passes away in China, their visa status may be affected depending on the type of visa they hold.
If the foreigner is on a dependent visa based on their spouse’s status, they may no longer be eligible to stay in China once their spouse passes away. In this case, they would need to apply for a new visa or leave the country.
If the foreigner is on a work visa or student visa, they may be able to remain in China, but they would need to inform the relevant authorities of their change in circumstances and may need to provide additional documentation to prove their eligibility to stay in the country.
It is important for the foreigner to consult with the local authorities or a legal advisor to understand their specific visa implications and to ensure they are in compliance with Chinese immigration laws.
