First Update: At the moment, according to our readers this is the easiest solution (unless you hold a Hong Kong resident permit).
Second update: Generally speaking, if during the last twelve months you have already obtained one or two Chinese VISAs in Hong Kong, it’s going to be hard to get more than a 14 day tourist or business VISA (unless you have a legit invitation letter from a Chinese company).
If you aren’t one of those people that basically live in China with a tourist or business VISA, then you should be able to obtain at least a 60 day tourist VISA (double entry, this means that you’ll have to exit and reenter China after 30 days) or a multi-entry 6-12 month business VISA.
Note that if you obtain a multi-entry business VISA of 90, 180 or 365 days, you’ll have to exit China every 30, 60 or 90 days (according to the VISA you will get).
Moreover, in order to obtain a business VISA with a duration of 90, 180 or 365 days, usually you must have already obtained in the past a Chinese VISA outside the Chinese territory and have in your passport at least a stamp from the Chinese immigration office (that is you have already been in China).
If you applied for your VISA through an agency before August 2013, it was possible to obtain it within five hours. Nowadays, the rush service is two working days (that is, 24 hours because in China, the day on which you apply is included in the working days) for short term tourist and business VISAs, and up to fifteen working days for a 6 or 12 month business VISA (according to the situation).
There are a lot of VISA agencies in Hong Kong give you visa services .
