2026年上半年，超过205万名外国旅客凭免签政策入境上海，占所有外国入境人次的60%以上。以下是上海入境激增对中国行程的意义。
核心观点
Shanghai processed over 2.05 million visa-free foreign arrivals in the first half of 2026, accounting for more than 60% of all inbound foreign visitors to the city, according to authorities cited by China Daily on July 6, 2026. Both Pudong (PVG) and Hongqiao (SHA) airports are designated 240-hour TWOV ports. The surge reflects the national trend: China recorded 22.91 million foreign entries nationwide in H1 2026, with 77.7% entering visa-free.

有哪些变化
2026年，上海作为中国主要国际门户的作用进一步增强。205万这一数字代表凭30天单方面免签或240小时过境免签（TWOV）政策入境的旅客，其中**浦东国际机场（PVG）**处理了绝大部分入境人次。
上海市政府已实施配套措施以简化入境流程，包括为免签旅客设置专用边检通道、在两座机场提供多语言标识，并提升交通枢纽的外卡受理能力——旅客可使用Visa和万事达卡购买地铁票、高铁票，甚至直接从机场支付出租车费用。
这不仅是上海的故事。城市层面的数据印证了全国趋势：2026年上半年，中国全国外国入境人次达2291万（同比增长20.4%），其中77.7%为免签入境，据国家移民管理局（NIA）报告。
下一步
- Confirm your flight arrives at PVG (preferred for TWOV) — Hongqiao also qualifies but has fewer long-haul routes. 2. Download Alipay and link your Visa/Mastercard before departure while you have SMS access. 3. Pre-book your first night's accommodation through Trip.com and save the confirmation for immigration.
可能变化的部分
TWOV region does not include Beijing — you need a separate entry at a Beijing port. Processing times can spike to 30–60 minutes during Chinese New Year and Golden Week (October 1–7). Policies authorized through December 31, 2026.
常见问题
Can I use the 240-hour TWOV program at Shanghai Pudong Airport?
Yes. Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG) is one of 37 designated ports. You must hold a confirmed ticket to a third country departing within 240 hours (NIA, July 2026).
Does the Shanghai TWOV region include Suzhou and Hangzhou?
Yes. The permitted region covers Shanghai, Suzhou, Hangzhou, Nanjing, and the Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai cluster. Beijing is not included — you need a separate entry at a Beijing port.
Can I pay for the Shanghai Maglev train with a foreign credit card?
Yes — at Pudong Airport's Maglev station. Not all in-city metro stations accept foreign cards, so set up Alipay with a linked international card as backup.
