Oct 9, 2014 at 13:29 comment added hippietrail I didn't re-enter China from Taiwan but I found out the answer is that you can't do it with a single-entry visa.
Oct 9, 2014 at 13:26 comment added user20713 What was the answer in the end? Did you need 2 entry visa to re-enter china from Taiwan? Or is Single Entry visa to Mainland China enough?
Dec 29, 2013 at 6:25 comment added hippietrail @user102008: From the Wikipedia article it seems to be an English term which has several overlapping senses depending on POV. After reading it I'm still not sure this term is endorsed by PRC or if there's an equivalent term with equivalent meaning in Chinese used in PRC \-:
Dec 29, 2013 at 5:05 comment added user102008 @hippietrail: "Mainland China" has a very specific political meaning. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mainland_China
Dec 29, 2013 at 1:55 comment added hippietrail @user102008: So is Hainan or every other island classified as part of the mainland? It requires quite contorted logic and multiple new definitions of mainland for it to make sense.
Dec 29, 2013 at 1:38 comment added user102008 More specifically, you have a visa for Mainland China only (you cannot use it to enter any other part of "China"). And you are entering Mainland China again.

Dec 22, 2013 at 13:09 comment added Russell McMahon I'd expect the answer to be as per @jpatokal's response. Certainly mainland-China - Hong Kong uses up a visa entry and Hong Kong IS part of China ["one country, two systems"] in fact as opposed to just desire.
