A new procedure for all incoming visitors has been launched in a popular tourist spot in an effort to streamline the travel process, plus security.

Travelers to Taiwan are now required to apply for a “digital arrival” card (TWAC) three days in advance of their trips, according to the Ministry of the Interior National Immigration Agency Republic of China Taiwan (MINIA).

The card is free, but it requires the submission of a valid passport, email address, occupation, phone number and travel accommodation information, the same source notes.
