Chengdu Metro Line 9 (simplified Chinese: 成都地铁9号线; traditional Chinese: 成都地鐵9號線) is located in Chengdu, Sichuan and forms an extension to the existing Chengdu Metro system. The line officially opened on 18 December 2020.

Line 9 Phase I runs from Financial City East to Huangtianba and is envisioned to be the second loop line in Chengdu (after Line 7) in the future. Line 9's color is bright orange.

It is the first ever fully automated ATO GoA 4 metro line in Chengdu.

Line 9 uses high capacity Type A 8-car trains. The 13 stations were designed by London-based Sepanta in collaboration with Chinese architect Jiang & Associates Design.
