Entry rules depend on nationality and trip purpose, so you should confirm the latest policy with Taiwan's Bureau of Consular Affairs before travel."
      },
      "q10": {
        "question": "How easy is it to travel within Taiwan after I arrive?",
        "answer": "Taiwan has an efficient high-speed rail network connecting Taipei in the north to Kaohsiung in the south, complemented by regular trains and intercity buses. Arriving at Taoyuan Airport near Taipei offers immediate access to the high-speed rail, making onward travel quick. Kaohsiung Airport in the south also links to the rail network, though with fewer frequent services. Domestic flights to offshore islands like Penghu are available from Taipei, Taichung and Kaohsiung."
