Do mainland tourists have to pay a deposit for free travel to Taiwan Province Province now?

You don't need a deposit, but you need financial proof ... or salary proof.

There are two types of mainland tourists who are eligible to travel to Taiwan for free:

First, adults over the age of 20 need to provide economic proof such as real estate, deposit or credit card limit, and can bring their immediate family members and spouses together;

Second, college students with 18 or above do not need to issue economic certificates.

Proof of economic source provided by mainland tourists can be proof of real estate, proof of deposit of more than NT$ 200,000 (about 45,000 RMB), and proof of annual salary of more than NT$ 550,000 (about 6,543,800+0,230 RMB).

The two sides of the strait did not adopt the deposit system and changed to the "double insurance" system. That is, on the one hand, mainland tourists need to provide 1 mainland relatives as emergency contacts; On the other hand, the travel agency in charge of reception in Taiwan Province Province should also bear the insurance liability, and both conditions are indispensable.

According to the practice of outbound travel, mainland tourists who want to travel freely to Taiwan also need to take out travel insurance of more than 2 million yuan.
