As of May 2026, Chengdu is not under a city-wide quarantine or lockdown. While the city previously implemented a major lockdown for its 21 million residents in September 2022 due to China's zero-COVID policy, those stringent measures were lifted following national policy changes in late 2022. Current entry requirements for travelers to China, including Chengdu, generally do not involve mandatory quarantine, although authorities reserve the right to require testing for infectious diseases upon arrival. Travelers are required to register their residence within 24 hours of arrival and should check with the Embassy of the People's Republic of China for the most current visa and health protocols, as requirements can change based on global health events.
