Abstract

In this paper the status and prospects for BESIII is presented.The BEPCII machine is in good status and recently reached its highest luminosity of 7.08*10^32cm^-2s^-1. The BESIII detectors have been running stably since 2009. Upgrade plans for its sub-detectors have been proposed and the upgrade is undergoing. The major upgrade comes from the drift chamber and the time of of flight counter. The other sub-detectors show good status and no upgrade are needed. Given the current status and upgrade plan of the BESIII detectors, it's foreseen that the BESIII is able to work for 8 to 10 years from now.
