The Taiwan border has been open since 13 October, and crew exchange can now be conducted at the country’s commercial ports.
The regulations are as follows:
For crew change in Taiwan, follow the epidemic prevention measures announced by the command center for 7-day self-initiated prevention period after entry.
During the self-initiated prevention period, if your health is not abnormal, crew must immediately cooperate with the arrival and departure of aircraft or ships to depart as soon as possible during the period.
When embarking/disembarking, crew must provide a rapid test negative result from within 48 hours before they can go through the procedure. The ship owner can arrange a suitable flight according to the ship's itinerary, to facilitate the smooth entry, exit of the crew, and avoid the 7-day rule of self-initiated prevention, and then take the plane/vessel to leave the country directly.
No quarantine/isolation required, but 7-day period of self-initiated prevention needs to still be implemented.
In principle, inbound passengers should stay in a hotel room or a residence (with a private bathroom) that meets the requirements of "one person, one room" during the self-initiated prevention period.
If there is a need for a meal, they should dine alone or with a specific person in the restaurant. Wear a mask when leaving their seat and immediately after their meal.
During the self-initiated prevention period, arriving travelers should avoid coming into contact with persons who have a high risk of developing severe COVID-19 (including elderly people 65 and older, children under 6, and individuals who are immunocompromised or have a weak immune system).
Those with COVID-19 who have mild symptoms can receive home care at an enhanced quarantine hotel/government quarantine facility or the place where they undergo self-initiated prevention (general hotel not included).
Arriving travelers should follow self-initiated prevention rules on what to do if they test positive with a rapid test. Arriving travelers should seek medical attention as soon as possible and have their positive rapid test results evaluated through telemedicine/video consultations or by asking a friend or family member to go to a clinic or the medical institution in charge of home care (public health center included) on their behalf or following the instructions of their local health departments to visit a clinic or such a medical institution.
Four rapid test kits will be given to arriving travelers aged 2 and older by workers at international airports/ports upon arrival, to be used as follows:
