Tell me, please, is it possible to arrange an individual short-term (transit) visa without an invitation from a Chinese travel agency? The trip is planned to transit through Guangzhou to Oakland, the time of docking is about 14 hours, I would like to go for a walk in the city. I have Russian citizenship, my husband is a citizen of Poland.

Yes, if you want to leave the airport transit zone, you will need to get a transit visa. This type of visa is issued when passing the passport and customs control upon arrival in Guangzhou for FREE and gives the right to a visa-free stay within 72 hours, a mandatory condition for the opening of a transit visa is the availability of a / tickets (visa, if required) to a third country. All of the above applies to both Russian citizens and to Poland.
