Located in the East Asian region, Taiwan has an important geographical location and is vital to the global maritime industry. The following are several essential aspects of Taiwan in international shipping:
- Key route meeting point: Taiwan is between East and Southeast Asia and has become a vital route meeting point. Many routes from East Asia to Southeast Asia, South Asia, Europe, and the Americas, or from these regions to East Asia, need to pass through the waters near Taiwan. This makes Taiwan's ports a vital transit point for incoming and outgoing goods, facilitating international trade and logistics activities.
- Asian Shipping Center: Taiwan has many internationally renowned ports, including Keelung Port, Kaohsiung Port, and Taichung Port. These ports are well-equipped to accommodate large and container cargo ships and provide comprehensive cargo handling and logistics services. Taiwan's port operators have rich experience and professional knowledge, which has attracted many international shipping companies to set up business here, making Taiwan one of the shipping centers in Asia.
- A critical channel in the Taiwan Strait: The Taiwan Strait is one of the virtual channels connecting the East China Sea and the South China Sea. Many ships conduct international trade and shipping activities through the Taiwan Strait, especially cargo between mainland China and Southeast Asia. Taiwan's geographical location makes the Taiwan Strait a vital shipping channel and provides abundant business opportunities and cooperation potential.
- The critical point of the trans-Pacific route: Taiwan is located on the east coast of the Pacific Ocean and is one of the essential points of the trans-Pacific course. From Taiwan's ports, you can directly reach the ports on the east coast and west coast of the United States, strengthening Taiwan's connection between East Asia and the Americas. This is significant for trade in goods and personnel exchanges and promotes economic cooperation and exchanges between Taiwan and the rest of the world.
