On November 20, 2025, the National Immigration Administration (NIA) of China introduced the online filling of the Arrival Cards for foreign travelers. Now, the Beijing Daxing International Airport offers free Wi-Fi access, which allows foreigners to access by logging in with their passport information, making it much easier to fill out the entry information online upon arrival, and further improving their travel experiences.

Upon arrival at the Daxing Airport, foreign travelers can connect to its Wi-Fi network whose SSID is "BDIA-FREE-WIFI". Photographing the passport information page on the authentication webpage enables quick identity verification and free Wi-Fi access. Additional authentication options, such as kiosk-based authentication, WeChat quick login, and mobile phone number authentication, are also available.

After connecting to the Wi-Fi, foreign travelers can scan the designated QR code to fill out their Arrival Cards on the official online platform of NIA. This service effectively reduces waiting time at entry ports.

After getting online, foreign travelers can also use the BDIA (北京大兴机场) WeChat mini-program to access the "Inbound Passenger Guide" section. Available in English, Russian, and several other languages, the guides in the section provide practical information on entry and transfer procedures, tax refund instructions, currency exchange services, Beijing Service Points, and many other services.
