Quarantine policy from Taiwan Centers for Disease Control

On August 15, the Central Epidemic Command Center (CECC) announced that, effective from September 1, mandatory quarantine for arrivals will remain to be three days of quarantine and four days of self-initiated epidemic prevention. Furthermore, the one person per room rule will be adopted for the four-day period of self-initiated epidemic prevention. Related rules are listed below.

I. Quarantine period and location:
A. Three days of quarantine: quarantining at home or a residence of a friend or family member, with the one person per residence rule being followed, or staying at a quarantine hotel.
B. Four days of self-initiated epidemic prevention:
1. An arrival may undergo self-initiated epidemic prevention at his or her home or a residence of his friend or family that meets the one person per room rule. This rule means a room used to undergo self-initiated epidemic prevention, in principle, should have a bathroom. An arrival may not stay at a general hotel.
2. After completing the three-day quarantine, an arrival can go to a place that meets the one person per room rule to undergo self-initiated epidemic prevention without applying with his or her local government to change his or her place of lodging during the self-initiated epidemic prevention period.
