Taiwan reopened its border in October last year. After this, more than 60,000 Filipinos had flown in by the first quarter of 2023. Filipinos have been allowed to stay in Taiwan visa-free for at least 14 days since the Philippines were included in a 9-month trial period of the scheme in 2017. It had been extended every year since then.
