Visiting Yiwu for this fair
Practical notes for buyers flying in: entry rules, how to reach the venue, where to stay, how to pay, and what to do with the days after the fair. Checked October 14, 2026.
- Entry and visas
- Yiwu Airport has been a designated 240-hour visa-free transit port since December 2024, and the permitted area covers all of Zhejiang province. Most buyers still fly into Shanghai or Hangzhou and take the train. The 30-day unilateral exemption applies if your passport qualifies; otherwise a business visa with a supplier or organiser letter.
- Getting to the venue
- Yiwu International Expo Center is about 15 minutes by taxi from Yiwu railway station. High-speed trains run from Shanghai Hongqiao (1.5 to 2 hours) and Hangzhou East (45 to 60 minutes) every half hour. From Yiwu Airport the venue is about 20 minutes by taxi.
- Where to stay
- Stay in the Futian area between the Expo Center and the International Trade City districts so you can split days between the fair and the market. Hotels fill in the Yiwu Fair week in October; agents often hold rooms for clients.
- Paying in Yiwu
- Booth prices are quoted in RMB per piece or per carton. Alipay or WeChat Pay with a foreign card works for samples and meals; order balances go by bank transfer, usually through your agent's or the supplier's company account, with receipts.
- After the fair
- Yiwu International Trade City (Districts 1 to 5) is open year-round next to the fair, so one more day covers the categories you missed. Yongkang hardware and Zhuji socks are 40 minutes by car, Haining leather 1.5 hours, Ningbo port about 2 hours for container loading checks.
