Taiwan: Exporter Guide

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   TW2023-0060
As the US’ sixth-largest export market for food and agricultural products, Taiwan imported a record-high US $4.4 billion of food and agricultural products from the US in 2022. These high-in-demand products include beef, poultry, dairy, fruits, tree nuts, and vegetables. The island is highly dependent on agricultural imports due to its insufficient farmland. Pairs with the fact that it has one of the highest disposable incomes in north Asia, the local consumers are actively seeking out high-end and exotic products and experiences, which makes Taiwan a land full of opportunities. This report is a practical guide for U.S. food exporters who are interested in exploring the Taiwan market, which has now fully opened its border for overseas travel.
