    COVID-19 Update

    Taiwan allows applying for a business visa for persons holding special approval to enter for reasons other than tourism or regular social visits, persons with permission to enter for approved medical care, or persons holding approval to enter for study (and their companions). All persons granted entry into Taiwan must self-isolate for 14 days. Persons travelling to Taiwan for short-term business purposes may be eligible for shortened self-isolation requirements. In order to apply, travellers must submit documents prepared by the host company in Taiwan comprising a detailed travel itinerary and COVID-19 prevention plans. Exemptions to quarantine requirements will be made on a case-by-case basis at the discretion of relevant authorities in Taiwan.

    From December 1, 2020, all persons must present a certificate showing a negative result for COVID-19 issued no more than 72 hours prior to departure using an RT-PCR test. In all cases of exemption, travellers must sign an affidavit attesting to their purpose and produce supporting documentation. Such persons may be asked to undergo COVID-19 testing at their own expense upon arrival in Taiwan. All persons arriving in Taiwan are required to submit a health declaration via the mobile website of the “Quarantine System of Entry” prior to boarding flights bound for Taiwan.
