  • connie

    I don’t think so. The office hour of the custom is the same with the open time of Luohu Port for the transaction of visas.

    Luohu Control Point
    Operating hours

    6:30 AM to midnight every day

  • is there only “tourist visa to Shenzhen Special Economic Zone”? how about full china visa?

    because I heard that shenzhen special economic zone visa won’t allow us to leave china from baoan shenzhen airport, because the airport location is outside the “special economic zone”

    it is better if we can apply china full visa at luohu so we can leave china from shenzhen airport

    On Dec 20, I called immigration office at Lowu to make sure that on my visit day ( 7 Jan 2011) VOA is available. I talked to one of the officer who can speak English. She said that it is not decide yet. So,On that day, I went to china visa center in Jakarta. I apply visa in Jakarta. So, I don’t use VOA when I arrive Luohu from Hongkong.

What kind of document & photo need to submit and how much is the Visa Fee? Look forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you.

  • Camelia

    I just return from HongKong, travelled with my hubby and my son. 2 days ago we tried to get on arrival visa to visit window of the world in Shenzhen, but the officer said that I could not apply on arrival visa, there is a regulation for women age 10 to 50. He suggest me to get visa in Indonesia (my country). I think this is a discrimination for woman, I am very dissappointed and we returned to HongKong, what a waisted time and money (return train tickets for 3 pax)

  • rosalin

    hi… I am rosalin from indonesia. I went travelling with my daddy to Shenzhen yesterday.. We applied Voa and within 10mins the visa has been issued… carefully with agency, they might dunno such things instead they will ask you to go other place to apply visa… just remember when you alight at lo wu station, follow the signboard, if you are indonesian that means you are visitor/foreigner, there will be custom check out point. then follow the crowded that will lead you to check in point to shenzhen, but before that you will see signboard “port visa” take the stairs to the second floor. finally you can apply your voa at here… how to apply? fill up the application card, take the ticket number, submit your application, pay the fee, n collect your visa within 10mins… simple right? :)
