Hello!

Can anybody tell me if you are still able to obtain visas for the Shenzhen SEZ at Lo Wu??. I know previously they were $150 or so, but the price may have gone up.

I am travelling on a British passport.

or would it be easier to get a China visa at one of the China Travel places in the city??

Thanks

I haven't been to Shenzhen for ages mainly because of the cost of a visa for British passport holders.
I would expect it to cost the same in HK as it does at the border. You can go to the China Visa office in Wan Chai if you want to do it yourself.
Take passport photos or you can get them there.
There are also several visa agents in HK who will do it for you but it can cost a bit more.
You can only get a single/double entry for your first trip. After that you can get a 6 months multiple entry which is better value if you intend to go over regularly.

Hi

Can anyone tell me how much it would cost for an American to get a visa into Shenzhen for just a couple of days?

At the border 30 - 45 mins.

In advance through an agency perhaps 2 - 3 days, 5 for a multiple entry or Business visa. But of course it would be a litle cheaper.

Not how much time it'd cost but how much in HK dollars?
