Civil Aviation Administration of China: Power banks without 3C certification or recalled models banned on domestic flights
To ensure the safety of aviation operations, the Civil Aviation Administration of China has issued an urgent notice. Starting June 28, passengers are prohibited from carrying power banks that lack a 3C certification label, have unclear 3C labeling, or belong to recalled models or batches on domestic flights. (For details, please visit the official website of the State Administration for Market Regulation's Defective Product Recall Technical Center at www.samrdprc.org.cn/xfpzh/xfpgnzh)
Pudong Airport and Hongqiao Airport will enforce the requirements of this notice to ensure passenger safety. We kindly ask all passengers to comply with this notice by carefully checking the certification label, brand, and model of your power banks before traveling. Please do not bring non-compliant power banks on board. Remove your power bank before security checks to prevent travel delays.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Shanghai Pudong International Airport and Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport launched a 156-member youth language volunteer team on Oct 1 to assist inbound international travelers, serving over 540 people on the first day.
With China's visa-free friend circle expanding, Shanghai has become a top entry point during the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival holidays. Nearly 100 foreign passengers received warm, attentive help.
The volunteers, who are fluent in English, French, German, Japanese, and other languages, guide first-time visitors through mobile payments, SIM activation, Wi-Fi connection, ground transport, and other practical needs.
