Can TWOV be used for a multi-city trip?
It depends on the hour band and the geographic scope tied to the port. Outside that area, or without a qualifying onward ticket, apply for a visa instead.

China has widened transit without visa and some unilateral visa-free lists, but work, residence and the Chinese green card remain a strict, separate system.

For foreign-passport holders planning transit, business or tourism, and anyone who must distinguish L / M / Z visas from a residence permit.
Transit without visa (24 / 72 / 144 / 240 hours) is bound to ports, geography and onward tickets — it is not a tourist visa. Some passports get unilateral visa-free short stays. Port lists move quickly; use the National Immigration Administration notice.
Work needs a Z visa plus a work and residence permit, usually after an employer and expert-bureau approval. X is study, Q family, S private affairs. A tourist visa is not permission to work.
The Chinese green card is a high bar: typically high-level talent, substantial investment or a Chinese spouse, with limited grants. It is not citizenship. Use current NIA rules.

Handbooks summarise public sources so you can cross-check the visa matrix and policy playbooks. They are not legal advice. Quotas, stay lengths and visa-free lists move — confirm with the destination government and its missions before you travel or file.
