What documents did you use in order to leave\enter china ?

Thanks
1. There was a guy last year who rode around China on a small bike but failed to make it into Mongolia.

2. Tokyokid made it across the border into Kazakhstan 2008, apparently because the bike owner was with him.

3. Franki just returned from Laos on his bike.

4. Two Swiss will leave to Kyrgyzstan in May on their Chinese registered bikes.

5. A German guy will leave to Vlad late June on his

From what I know, it seems you must be the owner of the bike or have a written approval from the owner to leave China and some sort of export permission.

What is your time schedule ? If you are not in rush, we'll know more when the Swiss are on their way.

Btw, Erenhot is the only land border between China and Mongolia open to third country citizens.
