Hello gentlemen.
I am currently planning my trip to China. For budget reasons I decided to fly to Hong Kong first, and then request a Visa to enter the Mainland from there. I hear this is a very common process for travelers who go to Hong Kong.
I am currently researching and reading about this as I write this, but I would like to hear input from fellow traveling members that have already done this.
What is the process like? How long did it take for you? Any tips that might come in handy?
I normally get my China visa in Hong Kong. Forever Bright Trading Limited has a dodgy looking website but I always use them, drop off your passport in the morning and pick it up the next morning. They have pretty good customer service and they have always promptly responded to my emails.

They are located in Kowloon, Hong Kong.
