Taiwan Pork Imports
Posted on 2022-01-12 07:30:14

The government is warning that anyone who tries to bring pork or pork
products from Thailand to Taiwan will face fines of at least two hundred
thousand N-T.

Repeat offenders could be fined up to a million N-T.

Those caught at airports or seaports trying to bring in Thai pork and who are
unable to pay the fine upfront will be denied entry into Taiwan and deported.

The fine was announced after an African swine fever outbreak was confirmed
there.

The fines were announced after a package from Thailand containing sausages
was flagged by a post office in Tainan in December.

While the virus does not harm humans, it can be fatal to pigs and could
devastate the country's high-value pig farming industry.
