About:Chongqing
can i apply for 144-visa free transit policy in guangdong province, if connecting in Chongqing?
I bought plane tickets from Budapest, Hungary to Guangzhou via Chongqing (connecting flight 3 hours) and plan to get a 144 Visa-free transit policy in Guangdong, after which i´ll take a train to Hongkong. I just found out, my bags won´t get checked through to Guangzhou. Will i have to get a transit visa in Chongqing?

According to the policy, your situation does not qualify for the 144-hour visa-free transit in Guangdong. Since you need to collect and recheck luggage in Chongqing, it requires completing entry procedures, violating the "luggage checked through to a third country" rule. Also, Hong Kong is part of China, not a third country. Apply for a Chinese visa in advance to avoid issues.
