Hey there! Right now Taiwan is largely virus free. No cases on Penghu Island. Just 34 cases have been reported over the months out of 23 million people. Just be aware that flights have been cancelled between Taiwan and China/Macau/Hong Kong/South Korea.

Hello! We will be travelling this coming April 1 to 5. We are so worried because we will be travelling in Taiwan with one infant 1 Toddler and I kid and since there was a CoronaVirus outbreak we hesitated to fly in our dates. We our thinking for the safety of our Children so we are planning to rebook our flights before the Visa free will run out. I just need your suggestions about our concerns:

There are links on this page to several government sites. If there is a different specific country's travel recommendations you are looking for, I suggest taking a look at their government sites directly.

I will travel to Taiwan from February 21 to March 6. I am going to visit Korea for a week in the middle of my trip. Are you having trouble visiting Korea and entering Taiwan again? If there is a problem, I would like to cancel my trip to Korea.

Taiwan's Central Epidemic Command Center (CECC) on Thursday issued a basic Level 1 travel alert for South Korea, advising travelers from Taiwan to exercise normal precautions while in the country, in light of a spike in novel coronavirus (COVID-19) cases there. No Travel restrictions are in place at this point.

The most recent rules we've seen state that you would need to be quarantined upon your arrival in Taiwan for 14 days if you go through Hong Kong. I suggest contacting the airline to confirm. Good luck!

Unless you have visited China, Hong Kong or Macau in the last two weeks you will be just fine. No Taiwan-Singapore restrictions. Come on down to Hualien when you're here and join us! Safe travels.

Hi There! This is the best news I've heard so far. I am a solo female traveler from the Philippines and is scheduled to visit Taiwan in Feb. 21-25 this year. It is my birthday travel and I was too worried that my plans will get ruined because of the nCoV outbreak. I've been coordinating with my hotel and tours and was having second thoughts in pursuing my trip. I read news everyday about the nCoV updates in Taiwan and suddenly I landed on you post which is a big factor in my decision making. I'll be visiting Taipei, Taichung and Kaohsiung and would like to check out Hualien. See you soon Taiwan!
