The no-need-for-a-visa list is getting longer: Ireland, Switzerland, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, and Malaysia, where already visa free since December 1, 2023 (IE, CH since February 2024).
Singapore, Japan, Brunei are visa-free for years.
That means, you can just enter Mainland China without applying any visa. Obviously you will not need the 5-Day-Shenzhen-Visa if you are from one of the countries listed.
The no-visa entry is good for a 15 days stay. Just show up at the border, fill the blue form, go through immigration - that’s it! There is no cost, other than the travel cost of course.
