Bumping this thread again because it seems to be newly relevant, with mandated stays in the government quarantine facilities (I guess?) if you’re coming from “key high-risk countries”.
So if I’ve got it right, anyone who has been in any of the current high-risk countries in the past 14 days is stuck in these places, rather than a presumably-better quarantine hotel, or home quarantine.
Note: maybe I’ve got this wrong and “government quarantine facilities” are not the same as “group quarantine facilities.”
Quote from CDC announcement linked below, emphasis added:
A. Travelers arriving in Taiwan from “key high-risk countries”(including those who have visited those countries in the past 14 days and those who have transited in those countries): after they enter Taiwan via airport or port, such travelers will be required to quarantine in group quarantine facilities for 14 days and undergo PCR tests for COVID-19 upon checking in at group quarantine facilities and at the end of their quarantine period; such travelers are not required to pay group quarantine facility accommodation and testing fees. Currently, “key high-risk countries” include Brazil, India, the UK, Peru, Israel, Indonesia, and Bangladesh.
B. Travelers arriving Taiwan from countries other than the seven countries will be required to stay in a quarantine hotel or a group quarantine facility at their own expense for 14 days after arrival; they shall also undergo a PCR test before the end of their quarantine period.
Bump prompted by this post, but discussion is currently spread over a bunch of threads:
