The Taiwan Tourism Administration is now promoting Taiwan as a Muslim-friendly travel destination.

The TTA held its “Taiwan Muslim-Friendly Tourism B2B Networking Event” familiarisation trip on 27th November at the Fullon Hotel Tamsui Fisherman’s Wharf.

The event was organised jointly with the Crown Coast Union and Great Northeast Tourism Union, both of which are committed to enhancing the Muslim-friendly environment in their regions, with several businesses already certified.

The event attracted 26 travel agencies from Malaysia, alongside Taiwanese travel agencies, hoteliers, restaurateurs, and souvenir providers with Muslim-friendly certifications or strong interest in serving Muslim travelers. 

This gathering aimed to foster collaboration opportunities in the international tourism market.

The familiarization trip for Malaysian Muslim travel agents was organized by the Taiwan Tourism Administration, Kuala Lumpur Office, which invited 26 Malaysian travel agencies to experience the tourism appeal of northern and central Taiwan. 

To facilitate interaction between Taiwanese and Malaysian agent friends, the Crown Coast and Great Northeast Tourism Union actively participated in the networking event. 

Booths were set up for discussions, attracting over 20 tourism providers from northern Taiwan. 

The event also featured three-minute presentations from some Taiwanese participants, introducing their Muslim-friendly services and products. 

During the discussions, both parties explored ways to align Taiwan’s diverse tourism resources with the needs of Malaysian Muslim travelers. 

The event fostered meaningful dialogue, establishing a solid foundation for future collaboration in the Taiwan-Malaysia Muslim tourism market.
