Located directly outside the international arrival exit, the station includes an ATM for international bank cards, a currency exchange machine for 20 currencies, and a public telephone offering free local calls. Four counters under an LED screen displaying “International Services Shanghai” offer support in communication, payment, tourism, and transportation.
