    If flying to Shenzen

    The best place to cross the border is at Lo Wu, but this border will close at 11:30pm. Also the last shuttle bus to Lo Wu from the airport is at 11PM. If you arrive after 11pm a shuttle bus is still available to Huang Gaung border 24hr until 11:30pm.

    Shuttle Bus

    You have two choices you can buy a ticket all the way to Hong Kong or just to the border.

    (it’s more convenient to take the first choice).

    Take the shuttle bus to the border crossing. Once you have crossed immigration the bus attendant will inform you were to wait for your connecting bus and will give you a token or ticket. Make sure you have filled in your departure card.

    The Shuttle bus will stop at the following places, Mong Kok (Kowloon), Tsim Sha Tsui(Kowloon) , Central (HK Island) and Causewaybay (HK Island).

    What to do in the Embassy

    Make sure you get to the Embassy early, as you will have to wait in line outside.

    The Embassy has two lines one for collection and application. (Make sure you’re in the correct line)

    Once inside go to the 7th Floor were you will be given a ticket. All you have to do is sit and wait. (Bring a book or newspaper to read)

    After you have submitted you application the (friendly) staff will inform you what time to come back the next day and give you a receipt.

    Remember if you submit your application in the morning you can collect next morning.

    When you arrive the next day go to the collection line.

    Once inside you must pay first.

    The payment counter is on your far left once you have paid they will give you a receipt.

    Then you must stand in the collection line. (I made the mistake of not paying first, many people do this.)

    Make sure you check your visa before you leave the counter.

    Defo in Saigon go via an agent takes two days and saves you the hassle of going to the Embassey. I had some friends refused in Hanoi, because they did not wear a shirt and shoes.

    It was good, but I think the winner was fixed and so did most of the crowd.
