Taiwan lifts all COVID-19 entry restrictions, tourists return
Taiwan lifted all its COVID-19 entry restrictions on Thursday, allowing tourists unfettered access to the self-ruled island after over 2½ years of border controls.
Visitors are no longer required to quarantine upon entry, or take any PCR tests. Instead, they will need to monitor their health for a week after arriving, and obtain a negative result on a rapid antigen test the day they arrive. If people want to go out during the week-long monitoring period, they need a negative test from either that day or the day before.
Valaisurang Bhaedhayajibh, a 53-year-old business development director of a design firm, called the new rules convenient. At a welcome ceremony in the Taoyuan airport’s arrival hall, the travellers from Thailand were met by the Taiwan Tourism Bureau’s director, Chang Shi-chung, who handed out gifts.
