Family sending meat to Taiwan? Beware of a NT$3 million fine

A:My family said they want to send me some pork ham from home. I’m really looking forward to it!

B:Absolutely not! Pork products are not allowed to be sent to Taiwan. There’s a fine up to NT$3 million, possible jail time, and even your residency might be affected!

A:Wow! Why is it so serious? What should I do then?

B:You can ask your family to send daily necessities or hometown snacks that don’t contain pork. It’s legal and still lets you feel close to home. Also, remind them to check the regulations first!

Reminder

Bringing or sending pork products to Taiwan can result in up to 7 years in prison and a fine of NT$3 million. Don’t let a careless mistake break the law!
