applying china visa for my children

Question

I have a Hong Kong identity card and also an identity (pink) card to visit China freely. However, my children both have UK passports. We would like to visit relatives in Shenzen in time for the Chinese New Year (23 Jan 2012). Can we apply for their visas in Hong Kong? Where and what documents do we need plus how long would they take? Most importantly, we arrive in HK from UK just 2 days before the chinese new year. Will they be opened during that time?

Yes, you can apply for their visas in Hong Kong. Please go to Commissioner's Office of Foreign Affairs Ministry of PRC in Hong Kong to apply for it, Address: 7th Floor, Lower Block, China Resources Building, No.26, Harbor Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong SAR For regular service, it takes 4 working days including submission day. For express service and rush service, it takes 3 working days or 2 working days. The office will be closed from 22nd Jan to 24th Jan 2012 for Chinese spring festival, the time is very processing, you'd better obtain a China visa in UK for your children.
