Overview  

On 27 Dec. 2021, the authorities of Taiwan announced that inbound travelers will need to supply a negative RT-PCR test result taken within two days of departure in order to enter Taiwan. The date must be from the time in which the test was taken and not the date from which the test result was reported.
