Even during Olympic period, a british can get a 30-day China tourist visa in HK. Later you can get a longer one.

for L visa, there are three types, single entry valid for 3 months, double entry valid for 6 months, multiple-entry valid for i) 6 months, ii) 1 year iii) 2 years. Multiple entry visa that valid for 2 years needs a letter of invitation. You can always apply double entry L-visa that valid for 6 months.

It is quite easy to get a China visa in HK. You can go and apply yourself at the visa office. Or you can simply turn to an agent to help you get one. There are same-day, second-day and normal services. You can have the visa sorted out quite quickly.

During hardest Olympic period, citizens from most of countries except 33 countries can get 30-day tourist visa (longest, valid for 3-month, duration of each stay is 30 days).

really? I heard that it's never as easy as it was to get a visa to China from HK after the olympics.

But if you are just looking for a 30-day L visa, you can still get it from HK.

And I think if you are to apply a visa in vietnam, you will have to get an official invitation letter from the autorised entity in China.
