The government extended the stay for travelers who arrived in Taiwan before March 21 on a visa waiver, visa free, or landing visa program by an additional 30 days

The foreign ministry says it is granting a 30 day extension to the amount of time certain foreign nationals in Taiwan can stay. This is the second such extension the government has granted: the first took effect March 21.

The extension has been made in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Both extensions apply to those who arrived in Taiwan on or before March 21. The extension only applies to foreign nationals allowed into Taiwan as part of a visa-waiver program, those allowed to apply for visas on arrival, and those holding visitor visas.    [FULL  STORY]
