Hi all.

I believe you can get a visa at the border to visit the economic zone, limit 5 days, if you enter from Hongkong,

i like to make that attempt, someone done this before?

It is limited to certain countries, but no US citicens.

Need to know if on Thai passport is eligible.

I know Aust can.

Any information would be helpfull, incuding your travel experiences

Thanks.

Google. is your friend, look here

As far as I know, there are only a few countries that can't get that visa - USA, India, France and the Philippines. The normal cost is 168RMB (payable in RMB cash only), but some countries get charged more - I suspect that Thailand may be one of them, since the fees for regular visas for Thai citizens are higher than the "other nationalities" price.

At Lo Wu, look for some stairs going down and a sign that says "Port Visa" just after you cross the bridge over the river. Note that the signs just in front of the Port Visa sign say "Chinese Nationals" - but that's just been done to confuse you.

If you arrive at Huanggang (say if you take the sky limo from HKG) the visa office is at the left end of the arrival hall - there are also some people there that can get you a full visa, but they seem to be expensive - they quoted me RMB 3000 for a 6-month multiple entry that I ended up getting from Forever Bright Travel in TST for 2000 HKD (about RMB 1600)
