if you overstay one or 2 days and give a valid reasons, a written warning will
be given and no fine imposed
once my flight from beijing to shenzhen was delayed 12 hours due to snow
i reached shenzhen huanggang border crossing later by one day,the officer brought me to the office, a written warning was given, i was required to sign
on it, no fine was imposed, i exited shenzhen, crossed into hong kong,12 hours later i crossed back into shenzhen
advice for all bros here PLAN YOUR VISA RUN EARLY
or else go to the exit-entry department and apply for an extension one week
before hand, do not wait till last minute
heavy fine,jail and deportation are all the likely penalities for overstaying

for the deportation the spore embassy will not pay for your flight home
they will ask your family to remit money to pay the airfare
the china exit and entry office also will not pay for your deportation back to
spore
from what i know, if you cannot raise the money for airfare
the china side will keep you in police custody until your family remit the airfare funds

for those who overstay in china more than one month, usually the persons
will be banned from entering china for up to 5 years max
all those info i learn from the officer who gave me the written warning
