The Navigraph app only shows runways 08R/26L and 08L/26R while the latest AIRAC has information on approaches using runway 25 (and no info on the other runways).
There are an official NOTAM to this:
W0652/26 NOTAMN

A)ZWWW B)2606021000 C)2609011000 EST
E) THE NEW RWY07/25(NOT IN USED) 1,830M SOUTH OF
RWY08R/26L,EXERCISE CAUTION WHILE LANDING AND TAKE-OFF.

Thanks for the quick response! If this is indeed the case, shouldn’t the AIRAC then contain information about runways 08R/26L and 08L/26R ? (which is currently not the case)
It is not “if this is indeed the case”, this is an official NOTAM from the FAA … so, this IS the case in the real-world.
I´m not sure I understand you correctly, but we have, and we offer all terminal procedures for ZWWW runways 08R/26L and 08L/26R…
Here from the PMDG:
… here from LittleNav Map:
So, the data are all available, and you can use it.

The FAA won’t write a NOTAM for a Chinese Airport. That comes from China, THRU possibly the US NOTAM Office depending on which SWIM system (if any) SBF is tied into. However, for International NOTAMs thru the USNOF, they add a disclaimer to every NOTAM that says the USNOF disclaims any responsibility for that NOTAM. They added the disclaimer when the FAA realigned their NOTAM system.
Ok, my bad, I used this link. I hadn’t known that this information from an official FAA side is not trustfull enough. Will consider this in the future. Thanks for the clarification.
Here, exactly the same information from a more reliable source, directly from the internal EC system:
W0652/26 NOTAMN
Q)ZWUQ/QMRXX///A/000/999/4354N08728E005
A)ZWWW
B)2606021000 C)2609011000 EST
E)THE NEW RWY07/25(NOT IN USED) 1,830M SOUTH OF
RWY08R/26L,EXERCISE CAUTION WHILE LANDING AND TAKE-OFF.

I think doug was just pointing out the NOTAM was not initially published by the FAA, rather than implying it was untrustworthy (the disclaimer being not because the information is inherently unreliable but simply because the FAA did not emit it in the first place).
NOTAMs for Chinese airports would (and/or should) initially come from the Chinese aviation authorities rather than the FAA itself. If anything, a NOTAM regarding a Chinese airport but actually emitted (as opposed to simply"forwarded" by) the FAA could be considered untrustworthy in my opinion.
I imagine most NOTAM lookup systems include NOTAMs emitted by the relevant official aviation authorities worldwide; it would be a real pain for pilots to have to use one distinct source per country.

I think the core question is answered, therefore I marked it as solved and closed now to avoid a change of subject.
Thank you
