Getting a Visa for China

And more precisely a 5-day visa on the spot at Lowu/Luohu.

Non es possible, señor. Unless you have a valid HK ID card. If you don’t you get bounced back to HK, and it is a painfully long process. I should know, I just went through that process.

Apparently the only place where you can get a Chinese visa as a, ahem, tourist, in HK is:

Office of the Commissioner of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People’s Republic of China in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region
外交部駐香港特派員公署領事部外國人簽證處

7/F, Lower Block, China Resources Building, 26 Harbour Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong (Department of Consular Affairs) (CA)
香港灣仔區港灣道26號華潤大廈低座7樓
Tel: 3413 2424
Email: fmco_hk@mfa.gov.cn
Website: http://www.fmcoprc.gov.hk/eng/
Office hours: 9/12 - 14/17, Monday to Friday.

Sucks. Greatly. I’ll try on Monday to get a friggin’ 2-entry visa. Will update this post accordingly.
