I bought Mi 6 Ceramic Edition last week and it immediately got an OTA update for MIUI 9, lucky me!
And one thing to confirm, it got long exposure 32s! (this is the one feature that held my decision back and forth whether to buy Mi6 or not)

Yeah once you have the update package just select it from the top right menu of the updater app.
Took about 5 mins to flash and reboot on my phone.
All working as before no issues only improvement.
It seems to select what parts of the system to update because there's no way it flashed 1.5gb onto my phone. Must follow the same install as the OTA

My Miui 8 ROM ends with NCAMIEG while the Miui 9 in the link ends NCAMIEI...will it change anything?...I wouldn't like to end up in a bootloop or brick the phone...
Thanks for any answer you could give.

Can I install the OTA from the latest Beta? Or should the device be on the previous stable release?
Previous stable.
The release channels are completely separate.
If you're on beta I would honestly stay there. Global release doesn't necessarily indicate there will be no more beta updates and also there won't be a lot of difference for you in terms of stability.
If you do really want to change then clean install the stable ROM.
I flashed this exact ROM from this link over Miui 8 stable and had no issues.
It must just be an identifier for the ROM version.

Unfortunately you have a Chinese phone that's been flashed with a locked bootloader to Global Firmware. (I have this as my phone is model MCT1 which is Chinese but I have the full Global Firmware and locked bootloader)
That's not bad for the phone but the system partition will have a mix of the Chinese ROM and the global ROM which is annoying for you.
I think sellers do this to avoid unlocking the bootloader but so that they can sell you a global phone which is fine.
You will need the official Xiaomi flashtool from their website.
You will need to unlock your bootloader (you can relock it after flash so don't worry about warranty etc)
Wait the time to unlock the BL (you need to link the device to your account and then apply for unlocking).
Use the tool to unlock and then flash the official global firmware from en.miui.com
In the tool select to relock the bootloader after flash.
You will then have fully clean install of Miui global!
All the region settings will be back then.
And system with be more stable.
Look for guides on the miui forum they're very good with that stuff.
I've personally not done this but know this is the official method to change the ROM from Chinese to global and vice versa.
Good luck and take it one step at a time and read the guides carefully.
It has minimal risk if you use the official tools provided.32
