Facility
All facilities (slaughter, processing, storage) must be MHLW-certified and notified to the Taiwan side in advance.
Tariff
Taiwan applies a per-kilogram specific duty on beef, which has recently been subject to temporary reductions. We confirm the current rate per shipment.

Clearance
A multi-stage (origin / border / market) inspection regime. Typically several business days with complete documents.
