I hold an Indian Passport and am travelling to HK and wish to also visit Shenzhen as a tourist. Do you recommend I apply for the Shenzhen visa in India? What is the visa fees?

If you have been to Mainland China, it is possible for you to get a 5 days Shenzhen visa on arrival if you just want to visit Shenzhen for 5 days at most. Otherwise, you have to apply for a China visa in India.

The visa fee for 5 days Shenzhen visa on arrival is RMB 160

The visa fee of a single entry tourist visa in India is RS. 2,000, you also you need to pay the service fee of CVASC RS. 610, the total fee is RS.2, 610.
