I've been going up to Shenzhen a lot lately since I finally qualified to have a multi-entry visa. Normally, a visa is good for only one or two visits.
I wish I knew exactly how I was able to get the multi-entry visa, but it's impossible to say. It seems that every time I apply for a visa, the rules -- and prices -- change. The only thing that is a constant is the fact that Americans pay more for their visas than anyone else.
