ReplyFastest border control
Is there a preference in terms of choosing one of the options above (or perhaps time of day) if I wish to avoid long border controls queues? I have a Chinese visa and I do not need a visa for HK.

00ReplyFutian Port is less crowded. You can take HK MTR to Lok Ma Chau Station and go through the checks at Futian Port. Trains are also convenient because you will go through the checks of both HK and Mainland China at West Kowloon High Speed Rail Station, then enter Shenzhen directly.

00ReplyThere are sign boards leading you to the taxi picking up area and you can easily get on a taxi there. The taxi cannot take u to Shenzhen, you need to get off at Lo Wu Port to go through the checks yourself and then get on a Shenzhen taxi there to your destination.
There are Alpha cars which can send you directly to Shenzhen without any transfer and you can book it in advance on the official site of HKIA.

ReplyVisa on Arrival for Japanese
I will arrive at Hong Kong airport on 8/17 Saturday around 9:30am from US with Japanese passport. I'm not sure how long it will take to go thru with custom and baggage area. Do you think I can still make to get visa at the border via bus or boat? if there is no hope, I will just try to stay in HK without trying to be at the border. Please give me an advice.

00ReplyApply for Shenzhen VOA after landing in HK at 09:30? You can go to Luohu, Huanggang or Shekou to apply on the days.
From HKIA, it will take no more than 2h by MTR to Luohu (Lo W in HK) or Huanggang (Lok Ma Chau in HK), or to Shekou by fast ferry.
