Taiwan to partially resume ferry services to China for Lunar New Year

2022/12/26

Direct ferry links between Taiwan and China are set to partially re-open during the Lunar New Year holidays, according to the Cabinet-level Mainland Affairs Council Dec. 22.
 
The resumption, set to take effect from Jan. 7 to Feb. 6, 2023, offers limited ferry services for residents of the two outlying counties of Kinmen and Matsu and their Chinese spouses, paving the way for a full resumption of the Mini Three Links, the MAC said. At the most there will be a once-daily ferry trip to China from Kinmen and no more than two trips per week from Matsu, the council added.
 
According to the MAC, the plan will be adjusted on a rolling basis according to actual operation and pandemic developments. Border epidemic prevention measures will be supervised to follow those by the Ministry of Health and Welfare implemented for flights, the council said.
