It is available at Lo Wu. But there are too many applicatns. If you don't want to wait in a long queue, go to Shekou by ferry.

You are eligible for the 5-day Shenzhen Visa on Arrival. However, it can only be got by ferry at Shekou, or by road at Huanggang, and Luohu (Lo Wu) ports. That means the high speed trains are not available to get it.
If traveling by high speed train, you need to apply for a visa in advance.

Destination details within China
I'm an Australian citizen and I'm currently completing my Chinese tourist visa. I'm due to fly to Beijing on 24 or 28 August. We are due to return to Australia on 12 September, 2023.
From Beijing, my Chinese girlfriend and I will be visiting, Harbin, Yunnan and Guizhou provinces. However, at this stage I don't have any addresses & dates where we will be staying in Yunnan and Guizhou provinces as it all depends how long we stay in Beijing and Harbin. Can you advise what I should put on my Visa application as to Section 6.1 J . Thank you.

Online Visa application
I have had a digital photo taken at the post office but it won't let me upload it onto the online form. The photo met all requirements at the post office but now says pixel rating is too low and the background is not fully white. I have had the photo taken a second time and still can't upload it. What can I do as I can't move to the next step until I upload my photo?

You may take a new picture based on the requirements and upload it again. There is no other better way. Good luck to you!
