Muslim-friendly environment
In order to promote medical tourism to the Muslim market, Department of Health, Taipei City Government, in accordance with Executive Yuan’s New Southbound Policy, collaborates with civilian resources to jointly promote a "Muslim-friendly medical environment.” It is hoped that Muslims from all over the world can enjoy respectful, friendly, and high-quality medical technology and services when visiting Taiwan. Currently, three medical institutions in Taipei City are certified Muslim-friendly medical institutions.
On the 2019 Global Muslim Travel Index (GMTI) published by MasterCard, Taiwan was ranked third among the best non-OIC (Organization of Islamic Cooperation) destinations for the first time, tied with the United Kingdom and Japan, and surpassing well known destinations such as Germany, Australia, and the United States.
