Typhoon Fanapi was 500 kilometres southeast of the Taiwanese coast at dawn on Saturday, China's Xinhua news agency said, citing the country's National Meteorological Centre.
The storm, packing winds of up to 162 kilometres per hour, is the 11th of the year, the report said.
The typhoon was expected to hit Taiwan's east coast on Sunday morning before making landfall on the Chinese mainland on Sunday night or Monday morning.
