International Arrivals (SHA Terminal 1)

  1. After landing, follow airport signs for Arrivals and (if applicable) Immigration.
  2. Complete Immigration and any required health/quarantine checks, then follow signs to Baggage Claim.
  3. Collect your luggage, then proceed to Customs and complete the exit process.
  4. Once you step out into the public Terminal 1 Arrivals hall (landside, 1F), slow down and look for signs reading “ATM”.
  5. Head toward the international arrival exit / inquiry counter area—this is a common place for service facilities (including ATMs) to be clustered.
  6. Withdraw the cash you need before you continue to taxis, rideshare pick-up, metro, or the transfer route to Terminal 2.
  7. If you can’t find an ATM landside, check the restricted arrivals area near baggage claim (some airports place ATMs close to baggage carousels) or ask the information desk to point you to the nearest ATM cluster.

Domestic Arrivals (SHA Terminal 2)

  1. After landing, follow signs for Arrivals and Baggage Claim.
  2. Collect your luggage, then follow the flow to the exit into the public Arrivals hall (landside, 1F).
  3. In the public Arrivals hall, look for “ATM” signage (ATMs are typically placed in open, high-traffic zones).
  4. Check the public area on 1F first, then scan the south side of the Arrivals hall if the nearest cluster is busy.
  5. If you still don’t see an ATM, walk toward the transport connections (Metro Lines 2/10 access on B1)—transport hubs often have additional banking machines nearby.
  6. Withdraw cash before heading outside to taxis, pick-up lanes, buses, or the rail/metro concourse.

Domestic Departures (SHA Terminal 2) — Quick “I Need Cash Before Security” Route

  1. Enter Terminal 2 and follow signs for Departures / Check-in (3F).
  2. On the public check-in level, look for the central inquiry counter—an ATM cluster is commonly placed nearby.
  3. If you are at the check-in islands, scan the perimeter near service counters and elevator/escalator banks.
  4. Withdraw cash before you pass security so you don’t need to backtrack.

Quick SHA Landmarks That Mean You’re Close

  • Terminal 1 (International): If you’ve just entered the public Arrivals hall (1F) and see information/inquiry counters, you’re in a prime ATM zone.
  • Terminal 2 (Domestic): If you are in the 1F Arrivals public hall or 3F check-in hall near the central inquiry counter, you’re very close to common ATM clusters.
  • Transport Hub: If you see signs for Metro Lines 2/10 or the Airport Link Line, you’re entering an area where extra cash-withdraw options may be nearby.

Use the map below to find the nearest ATMs and banks near Shanghai Hongqiao Airport (SHA), especially if you can’t use the ATMs inside the airport or prefer to withdraw cash outside the airport.

ATM Withdrawal Tips & Advice for Shanghai Hongqiao Airport (SHA)

  • Know which terminal you’re in first: Hongqiao has two terminals; international arrivals are typically handled in T1, while T2 is heavily domestic-focused. If you land internationally and need cash immediately, prioritize the T1 Arrivals (1F) inquiry/exit area before transferring elsewhere.
  • Use the “central inquiry counter” trick in T2: If you’re departing from Terminal 2 and can’t spot an ATM, head toward the central inquiry counter on the public departures/check-in level (3F)—service facilities are often clustered around this landmark.
  • Plan for foreign-card acceptance: In China, card acceptance varies by machine/operator. If one ATM fails, don’t assume your card is blocked—walk 1–3 minutes to a different ATM cluster (especially from Arrivals 1F to the transport hub / metro concourse).
  • Watch the on-screen fee prompt: If a local surcharge applies, it’s commonly shown before you confirm the withdrawal—cancel and switch machines if the fee looks unusually high.
  • Need staffed help instead of an ATM? The bank/money exchange corridor near Gate 4 in T2 is a practical backup during daytime hours (useful if you need exchange or a human to troubleshoot).
  • Cash timing for taxis and late-night arrivals: If you’re arriving late and plan to take a taxi, withdraw in the Arrivals hall (1F) before you walk outside—ATMs are easier to find indoors than after you reach the curb.
  • Heading to the rail/metro hub? Terminal 2 is close to Hongqiao Railway Station; if airport ATMs are busy, the transport hub and station concourses can offer additional withdrawal options.
  • Keep small notes handy: For short rides and small purchases right after landing, withdrawing a mix that includes smaller denominations can save time at kiosks and taxi queues.

FAQs – Shanghai Hongqiao Airport (SHA) ATMs

Are there ATMs in both Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 at Shanghai Hongqiao Airport (SHA)?
Yes. Hongqiao Airport provides ATM access across both terminals, with common clusters in public Arrivals (1F) areas and near central service/inquiry points.

What’s the easiest ATM area to find right after an international arrival at SHA?
For international arrivals (typically via Terminal 1), the easiest area is usually the public Arrivals hall (1F) near the international arrival exit / inquiry counter, since service facilities are often grouped there.

Are the ATMs at Shanghai Hongqiao Airport open 24 hours?
Many airport ATMs operate 24 hours, but access can depend on whether you’re in a restricted zone (airside/arrivals processing) and whether that area is open for arriving/departing passengers.

Do Shanghai Hongqiao Airport (SHA) ATMs charge fees?
It depends. Your card-issuing bank may charge its own withdrawal/FX fees, and some ATMs may display an additional local surcharge. If a surcharge applies, it’s typically shown on the ATM screen before you confirm—cancel if you don’t accept it.

Which cards usually work best at SHA ATMs?
Acceptance varies by machine/operator. Look for ATMs that show widely recognized network logos (such as UnionPay); if one ATM rejects your card, try another ATM cluster in the same terminal.

I’m departing from Terminal 2—where should I go if I can’t find an ATM quickly?
Go to the public departures/check-in level (3F) and look for the central inquiry counter; this is a common landmark where services (including ATMs) are placed nearby.

Is there a backup place to get cash if the airport ATMs are busy or not working?
Yes. You can try the transport hub/metro concourse areas connected to Terminal 2, and Hongqiao Railway Station is also nearby. During daytime hours, the bank/money exchange corridor near Gate 4 in Terminal 2 can help if you need staffed assistance.

Can I rely on a single ATM location at SHA?
It’s better to treat ATMs as clustered “zones” (Arrivals hall, check-in hall, transport hub) rather than one exact machine. If one location is out of service or crowded, the next cluster is usually only a few minutes away inside the same terminal.
