[Reporter Huang Jingyu/Taipei Report] In the past, before using automatic customs clearance, you had to go to the manual counter to register before you can use it. Chinese nationals with a height of 140 cm or more, as well as foreigners holding alien residence permits, can directly go to the gateway to record facial images or obtain fingerprint information, and then they can pass the customs, and one application is valid for life.

The Ministry of the Interior stated that my country has signed reciprocal use of automatic customs clearance (e-Gate) with 5 countries including the United States, South Korea, Australia, Italy and Germany. Qualified Chinese are welcome to use these 5 countries to save time waiting for inspection.

The Ministry of the Interior pointed out that in response to the large number of people during the Spring Festival holiday, in order to improve the efficiency of customs clearance, the Immigration Department has properly planned to mobilize all internal and external staff at Taoyuan Airport during the Spring Festival holiday, and additional security personnel, trainee volunteers and other auxiliary manpower will be fully invested. Passengers on the first line are cleared and transported through customs. In addition, special desks for passengers with reduced mobility and accompanying children with automatic customs clearance are also added, and passengers whose flights are about to take off are accelerated to clear customs in order to maintain high-quality customs clearance services.

Remind people who are scheduled to go abroad, please be sure to check in at the airport 2.5 hours in advance to avoid delays.

The Ministry of the Interior reminds that passengers must still pay attention to the validity of passports and visas of the destination country before leaving the country, and starting from New Year's Day this year, those born in the 93rd year of the Republic of China (including before) have reached the service age and have not yet fulfilled their military service obligations. A few days ago, I went to the "Online Application System for Short-term Exit of Drafted Men" to apply for approval.
