Since Taiwan’s economy started taking off in the 1980s, larger disposable incomes have led Taiwan consumers to gradually demand diversification and broader options for their daily diets.

In 2020, Taiwan was the eighth largest export market for U.S. food and agricultural products, valued at just over $3.3 billion. Imported food and agricultural products must comply with a range of laws designed to protect human health and prevent the introduction of animal and plant pests or diseases.

This report lists major export certificates required by the Taiwan government to export food and agricultural products to Taiwan. For more information on import requirements, see the Taiwan Food and Agricultural Import Regulations and Standards Report.
