arrive at pvg from united airlines flight chicago then to a vietnam airlines flight to

Question

Since these airlines are not allied, I will have to buy separate tickets, and I understand that I will not be able to have baggage checked through. I am therefore planning travel without checked baggage. My question is: Will I be able to go directly between these flights or will I have to go through Chinese immigration to get from one flight to the other? Both flights appear to arrive/depart from Terminal 2.

Yes, both flights use T2. But you cannot go directly between flights. You have to go through immigration. Here are the detailed procedures: Flight Arrival- International Arrival Access- Joint Inspection- Quarantine- Immigration- International Arrival Hall-Go to 3F for Boarding. ;)
