Before You Arrive

If you take these steps before you arrive, your trip will go much more smoothly. Here’s a quick overview; we’ll dive into the details below.

1. Internet Access: While international SIM cards can be used for roaming in China, a more cost-effective option is to get a local Chinese SIM card in advance to access the internet. You can purchase one at the airport or online before your trip.

2. Language: Get a translation app for your phone. While Most staff in Shanghai’s shopping malls and restaurants speak English, as the city is highly international and hosts many foreign visitors daily.

3. Payment Methods:

● Credit/Debit Cards: Look for UnionPay, Visa, or Mastercard logos at checkout. If not visible, ask if your card is accepted.

● UnionPay: Widely accepted across mainland China.

● Mobile Payments: Use Alipay, WeChat Pay, or UnionPay for easy payments. Foreign users can link international credit cards like Visa or Mastercard to these platforms.

● Cash: Carry some Chinese currency (CNY) for unforeseen situations.
