Taiwan to Relax Daily Cap on Mainland Independent Travelers

(CRI) Taiwan has announced it will increase the number of mainland tourists it allows to enter the island from 4,000 to 5,000 a day, after the island saw a slump in tourism data.

The island's development council says a policy package is being discussed to attract more tourists and generate higher tourism profits.

Certain tour groups from five Southeast Asian countries -- India, Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia and Vietnam -- could have their visa fees waived.

The threshold for tax refunds will be lowered from the current 3,000 new Taiwan dollars to 2,000.

The tax-refund process will be streamlined.
