Taiwan lifts all restrictions on food imports from Japan

TAIPEI: Taiwan lifted all restrictions on Japanese food imports on Friday in another show of support for Tokyo after reports that China will stop purchases over a row with the new prime minister. The government in Taipei imposed a blanket ban on food imports from five Japanese regions in and around the site of the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster, caused by a massive earthquake and tsunami, before easing some restrictions in 2022 and 2024. Taiwan’s Food and Drug Administration said on Friday that “Japanese food safety management measures return to normal,” with immediate effect.
