Other Taiwan customs information

A cholera vaccination certificate is a condition of entry if arriving or having passed through an infected area.

Vaccination against typhoid is advised.

Food drink: All water should be regarded as being potentially contaminated. Water used for drinking, brushing teeth or making ice should have first been boiled or otherwise sterilised. Milk is unpasteurised and should be boiled. Powdered or tinned milk is available and is advised, but make sure that it is reconstituted with pure water. Avoid dairy products which are likely to have been made from unboiled milk. Only eat well-cooked meat and fish, preferably served hot. Pork, salad and mayonnaise may carry increased risk. Vegetables should be cooked and fruit peeled.

Other risks: Immunisation against hepatitis A, B, diphtheria and tuberculosis is recommended. Japanese encephalitis, dengue fever, influenza and visceral leishmaniasis occur. Rhesus negative blood is rare.

Health care: Health care facilities are good and doctors well trained. Imported medicines are expensive, but locally produced and manufactured medicines are plentiful. Health insurance is recommended.
