Taiwan, 13th October: The government in Taiwan announced that it will re-open its borders to overseas travellers by lifting its compulsory quarantine for COVID-free arrivals.

In September, Taiwan resumed visa-free entry with a cap on the number of arrivals and a “3+4” arrangement: three nights in a designated hotel, followed by four days of self-monitoring and testing. Now, arrivals in Taiwan are required to conduct seven days of self-health management and advised to avoid crowded areas.
