Taiwan Travel and Tourism Coordination Act

HR 2370, the Taiwan Travel and Tourism Coordination Act, directs the U.S. Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Travel and Tourism to coordinate with the State and Commerce Departments within 90 days to expand travel and tourism cooperation with Taiwan's authorities. Key provisions include identifying opportunities to enhance U.S.-Taiwan travel, strengthen mutual tourism industries through industry partnerships (e.g., hotels, attractions, air travel), preserve cultural heritage tourism, and coordinate visitor safety. The bill also requires a report within 270 days (and annually for five years) detailing cooperation efforts and challenges, plus a separate 180-day report analyzing preclearance facility feasibility in Taiwan and its impacts on trade, tourism, and security. This bill directly affects U.S. travel/tourism industry stakeholders and Taiwan's tourism authorities through formalized coordination mechanisms.
