Can i apply for single/double china entry at Luohu border ( Shenzhen )

[Dutchman26]

hi there,

I'm a dutch citizen,

I'd like to visit from hong kong -> Shenzhen 1 or 3 days. ( as tourist )
After that i'm flying to Shanghai. ( as tourist 30* days. )

I know you can buy for 1 or 5 days the shenzhen visum at Luohu border for about 200 hk if i'm not mistaking.
But can i also apply after visit shenzhen for couple of days, for a single/double china entry at the Luohu border to Shanghai ? So yes what the costs?

Or do i have to apply for it in Hong Kong.( after comming back.? )
Because your not aloud to keep to visums in your passport!

Planning to fly next week!

thanks for your feedback '.

A. skip Shenzhen, nothing but buildings
B. If you still want to go to Shenzhen then apply for a double entry in Oranjeland, nothing beats that.
C. If you apply for a double entry in HK you will have to spend a night here and pay HK$ 300 rush fee

Getting the visa in Europe these days often means lots of hoops to jump through- return flights and hotel bookings often required.

For Shenzhen, the cost is 160Rmb.

For the full China visa, the cost is HK$200 for a single entry. You can get a visa at the Visa Office in Wanchai - pay extra for fast processing (for now you can ignore the notice on the front page).

Yo might wnat to use an agency and try to get a double entry visa in Hong Kong. Cost might end up similar. I have used Forever Bright in the past.

And no, you cannot get a full China visa or double entry Shenzhen SEZ visa from the Luohu border crossing.

Thanks for this info; I'm glad to be wrong! Is this still the case at those "high security" times when you can't get a visa downtown unless you already have a full itinerary of hotels and transport bookings already set in concrete, with full documentation?

Visiting Shenzhen for 1-2 days from Hong Kong. How much will the visa cost and from where can I obtain it. I believe it takes 4-5 Working days. Planning to enter from Low u.

1. Does British Passport Holders fall in 'reciprocal' or non-reciprocal' category? Is this rule applicable today 04 July, 2012. Single entry Tourist visa.
2, Just want to visit Shenzhen for 1-2 days.

you can get a 5 day shenzhen visa on the 3rd floor upstairs, in a set of doors at the official visa issuingh place) after passing the barriers ( not the cts office pass the barriers within lo wu station or the next to the stairs in a hole in a wall cost HK$460 there, also takes around an hour or so) cost HK$307 on a uk passport, i was there when my mate had his done in 15 minutes during early march this year.

on the other hand , the issuing office in wan chai will take 4-5 days for a full visa to anywhere in china and cost HK$300 for a single and i think HK$550 for a double on a uk passport
