Import regulations for Taiwan

In Taiwan, the Ministry of Agriculture (MOA) is the main competent authority for domestic agricultural, forestry, fishery, animal husbandry, and food affairs. Established by the MOA, the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Agency (APHIA) is responsible for all phytosanitary and veterinary affairs, including the implementation and supervision of import and export inspection and quarantine operations.

ATTENTION

It is possible that some importation requirements may not be published on these websites, or that some regulations may be available online in the Chinese language only. Exporters in the Netherlands are recommended to always check sufficiently with their importers in Taiwan in order to be equipped with all necessary importation documents prior to shipment of the consignments.
