| Jun 9, 2019 at 6:20 | comment | added | Anish Sheela | @Mehrdad, For ENTRI, earlier, Air exit was mentioned. Now, only is limited by land. For Singapore - Malaysia, Only one point over land is allowed in and seaport is not at all mentioned. But they strictly enforce the direct flight clause.

| Jun 9, 2019 at 5:43 | comment | added | reirab | @Mehrdad Technically not a visa, but the visa-free transit entry in China that I mentioned is such an example. It's only allowed in certain ports you must remain within and leave China from one of the allowed ports in that region. For example, if you enter at PVG, you must remain within the Shanghai/Jiangsu/Zhejiang region and leave from a port in Shanghai or the airport in Jiangsu or Zhejiang. | |
| Jun 9, 2019 at 5:28 | comment | added | reirab | @LorenPechtel Yes, you're right. I've used it a couple of times in the past at PVG and they were quite clear about being unable to leave the Shanghai area while there. | |
| Jun 9, 2019 at 4:54 | comment | added | user541686 | "Some type of visas to some countries allow you to enter and exit via specific entry points only. For example, ENTRI visa of Malaysia limits to persons who are appearing from direct flights and go out of country on direct flights. And the Airports of arrival is also limited." Could you please mention an example that actually limits both the enter and exit ports, with the ports being listed. Currently you only gave a half-example that still leaves the reader hanging as to the specifics of how it's "limited" in arrival, and which doesn't restrict departure (unlike in the initial claim). | |
| Jun 9, 2019 at 3:52 | comment | added | Loren Pechtel | @reirab The 144 hour Chinese transit visa that you're talking about limits you to the area you arrived in for all purposes, not just departure--don't expect to get a hotel room elsewhere! | |
| Jun 7, 2019 at 13:21 | comment | added | reirab | @MattDouhan Yes, and, with China's, which port(s) you can leave from can also depend on which one you used to enter (for example, in the case of the visa-free transit program, where you generally must exit from the same region/city where you entered.) Fortunately, the U.S. has no such restrictions. | |
| Jun 7, 2019 at 5:56 | comment | added | SpacePhoenix | Whatever an I-94 form is/used for I don't think it's needed (at least in the past) to go in and out of the USA. Both times when we've been on holiday in San Diego (from the UK) we've popped over the border to Mexico for the day | |

clarifying that advice only applies to non-US citizens

| Jun 6, 2019 at 16:35 | comment | added | Dancrumb | @CarstenS US citizens (and residents) do not need an I-94. This is for visitors only. | |
| Jun 6, 2019 at 13:44 | comment | added | Anish Sheela | @CarstenS Its mostly to check whether your exit is logged properly. For US citizens, I don't think it matters much. | |
| Jun 6, 2019 at 13:20 | comment | added | Matt Douhan | China also has the same restriction on some VISA that you need to leave and enter through specific port of entry so this answer is very relevant | |
| Jun 6, 2019 at 9:41 | comment | added | user4188 | Fantastic answer because it answers the "why is this a question even". | |
