The border has been completely lifted. From now on, passengers entering “0 + 7” do not need to be quarantined at home. If they have no relevant symptoms, they can take public transport home. During the self-epidemic prevention period, they only need to hold a negative rapid screening certificate within 2 days to get out. . “Zhongshi News Network” resolved 7 main measures for the release for the reference of the public.
1. Open foreigners to enter Taiwan
People from visa-free countries can enter visa-free countries. From now on, “visa-free countries” will be open for general social and sightseeing visits and the group restriction order will also be lifted.

◉ Visa-free countries for 30 days: Dominican Republic, Singapore, Malaysia.
◉Visa-free countries for 14 days: Thailand, Brunei, Philippines.
2. Quarantine measures at entry changed to “0 + 7”
From today, the quarantine measures at the entrance have been changed to 0 + 7. Passengers do not need the domestic quarantine at the entrance, but only have to perform self-prevention for 7 days. In addition, travelers using the 0 + 7 to enter the country can freely choose hotels, their residences or the residences of relatives and friends that meet the conditions of “1 person, 1 room” during the independent epidemic prevention period.
3. Entry can be made by public transport
Passengers entering today without confirmed symptoms can take public transport home; the Outbreak Prevention Fleet will prioritize passengers with symptoms.
4. Epidemic prevention hotels will be completely retired
Anti-epidemic home hotels will gradually retire after the new 0 + 7 system opens; all confirmed patients will be transferred to centralized quarantine centers.
5. After entering the country, you can leave freely
During the self-prevention period you can go out freely, but you must have a “negative quick test” certificate within 2 days. Always wear a face mask at work or school, and it is forbidden to accompany or visit patients to the hospital and try to avoid going to long-term care institutions. If you need to eat, you can take off the mask to eat and drink, but you must wear a mask immediately after eating.
6. Cancellation of “banning order” restrictions
The ban on group travel is lifted from today, but group passengers must be transported by special vehicles organized by travel agencies. If a passenger in the group quickly tests positive, he will be treated according to the quarantine mechanism confirmed by the Chinese: the operator will take the initiative to report, the doctor will evaluate and confirm the diagnosis, then conduct the 7 + 7 home isolation;
7. “0 + 7” also applies to the entry of migrant workers
After migrant workers have entered the country, the employer should ensure that migrant workers live in hotels, migrant workers’ dormitories or the employer’s residence that meets the “one room for one person” requirements. Industrial migrant workers and non-serious, high-risk social care migrant workers may engage in related work during the self-prevention period after failing the rapid test.
