How much does it cost to travel to Taiwan from Ma'anshan, Anhui for 15 days? What do I need and how long does it take to arrive in Taiwan?

1) It is not possible to travel in the form of tourism; currently, Taiwan is open to mainland residents for independent travel, only those with household registration in Beijing, Shanghai, and Xiamen, Ma'anshan is not among them, so you can only travel to Taiwan if you have the qualifications. Many travel agencies (usually China Travel Service, China Travel Service, and Youth Hostel) participate in group tours in Taiwan. However, travel agencies currently only have a maximum of 8 days around the island, and none that last as long as 15 days.

The process is: first bring your ID card to a travel agency to sign up for a group tour, and receive a pass application form stamped with the travel agency stamp, and a Taiwan tour registration receipt. In addition to these two pieces, you must also add the original household registration book and ID card. Bring the original document to the Exit-Entry Administration Office to apply for a pass. The approximate tour fee is about 5,000 yuan, and the tip for the other 8-day tour is 400 yuan.

2) If you are going for business, you can go for 10 days, but it is more troublesome and expensive. You need an enterprise or company in Taiwan to send an invitation letter, and your company also needs to provide a copy of the business license and stamp it. The official seal, as well as your proof of employment, the complete set of documents and endorsements will cost at least 3,000 RMB. This does not include round-trip air tickets, accommodation in Taiwan, transportation fees, etc., so it will cost at least 12,000 RMB to complete it all. Not good value for money.
