flag Taiwan requires prior approval for travel to China by officials and those with access to state secrets, with penalties for unauthorized trips.

flag Taiwan’s Executive Yuan has approved new rules requiring legislators and individuals with access to state secrets to get prior approval before traveling to China. flag A joint review committee will oversee these requests, and elected officials must publicly disclose all interactions with Chinese government, military, or CCP-linked groups during trips, including details on time, location, purpose, and content. flag Civil servants below grade 10 not handling classified work also need agency approval. flag Unauthorized travel by those with access to classified information could result in fines of NT$2 million to NT$10 million. flag Former officials are barred from attending events that undermine Taiwan’s sovereignty or national dignity. flag The changes aim to counter China’s influence efforts and improve transparency, with the bill now headed to the Legislative Yuan for review.
