Hi

Next month I'll be visiting China. I'd like to know if there are any shops sell prepaid sim cards in {Shanghai,https://www.travelchinaguide.com/cityguides/shanghai.htm} Pudong airpot.

If you know could you inform me how much they cost and do they have internet access?

thanks....

Ceng, you can find China Mobile's Business Hall in the domestic and international departure lounges inside T1 of [tcgurl=http://www.travelchinaguide.com/cityguides/shanghai/pudong-airport.htm]Pudong Airport[/tcgurl]. They must have prepaid SIM cards. Usually, there are 50 RMB, 100 RMB and 300 RMB prepaid cards. I do not know how much it costs. But I am sure that the prepaid SIM cards are much more expensive at the airport. If you are not in a hurry, you can buy it at any China Mobile's business hall in downtown area.

PS: I am not sure if the prepaid cards allow you to access to the internet. Better consult with the staff who sell the cards. By the way, China has introduced real name system to mobile cellphone users. You may be required to show your passport or ID card etc.
