june04 · 05-18-2021

The Department of Overseas Labour (DoLAB) announced on May 18 that labour export activities to Taiwan (China) will be suspended as of May 19 until June 18 as part of efforts to deal with a recent surge in the number of COVID-19 cases in Taiwan.

The Taiwan Centers for Disease Control (CDC) launched fresh containment measures, including an entry ban on non-residents who do not have a valid Alien Resident Certificate (ARC).

Exceptions may be made for individuals who obtain entry permission for emergency or humanitarian reasons.

The Taiwan CDC also added that the move will be adjusted on a rolling basis, with future decisions based on the status of the pandemic and the effectiveness of new measures.

The DoLAB requested that firms inform Vietnamese labourers who are waiting for their exit procedures, and contact Taiwanese counterparts to adjust their recruitment plans for local migrant workers.

The department also asked that businesses co-operate with the labour management board in Taiwan to handle the situation.

During the first four months of the year, Taiwan received a total of 15,055 Vietnamese labourers, including 5,255 female workers.
