Market
Fresh plum (李) is produced in Taiwan mainly in upland and mountainous areas, with major producing counties including Miaoli, Taichung, Nantou (and additional production in Kaohsiung and Taitung), and a main domestic season centered on late spring to summer. The market is primarily domestic-consumption oriented, but Taiwan is a net importer: UN Comtrade data (reported in UNdata under “Other Asia, nes”) show fresh plum imports of about USD 9.8 million and 4.32 million kg in 2023, while exports are negligible. For imported fresh plums, market access is highly sensitive to Taiwan’s plant quarantine requirements administered by BAPHIQ, including phytosanitary certification and pest-risk related admissibility conditions. Taiwan FDA import inspection and pesticide residue limit standards add an additional compliance layer for imported fruit.
Market RoleDomestic producer and net importer
Domestic RoleSeasonal domestic fresh fruit crop supplied mainly from upland producing areas to domestic wholesale/retail channels
SeasonalityDomestic supply is seasonal, with the commonly cited production period spanning May to August (with cultivar and area variation).

Supply Chain
Value Chain
- Domestic: orchard production in upland counties → wholesale fruit/vegetable markets → retail
- Imports: port/airport plant quarantine and food import inspection → wholesale markets → retail
Risks
Phytosanitary HighTaiwan’s plant quarantine regime (BAPHIQ) can block or disrupt fresh plum imports if shipments are not admissible under pest-risk conditions and phytosanitary requirements. BAPHIQ materials indicate fresh fruits must be accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate from the exporting country’s plant quarantine authority and that non-compliance can lead to destruction or reshipment; first-time imports of designated fresh fruit from areas with Mediterranean fruit fly require BAPHIQ approval steps.Confirm Taiwan admissibility for the specific origin/cultivar with BAPHIQ before shipment; ensure phytosanitary certificate wording and any additional declarations/treatments match Taiwan entry requirements; use pre-shipment inspection and robust pest-control documentation for first-time market access cases.
Food Safety MediumImported fresh plums are subject to Taiwan FDA food import inspection controls and must comply with Taiwan’s Standards for Pesticide Residue Limits in Foods; pesticide residue non-compliance can trigger border action and commercial loss.Align production spray programs to Taiwan MRLs, run pre-shipment residue testing where feasible, and maintain lot-level traceability to support corrective action if a shipment is flagged.
Climate MediumDomestic plum supply can be volatile due to weather shocks such as drought; public reporting in 2026 described severe yield reductions in a plum-growing area in Tainan following low rainfall and associated disaster relief measures. This can increase price volatility and change import demand timing.Use flexible procurement windows and diversify sourcing/arrival timing to manage seasonal shortfalls and spot-market volatility in Taiwan.
Sustainability
- Soil erosion risk historically associated with growing deciduous fruits on high-elevation slopes; Taiwan government efforts included shifting/breeding for lower-elevation cultivation to reduce erosion pressure.
FAQ
When is Taiwan’s main fresh plum season, and where are the main producing areas?Taiwan’s commonly cited production period for plums runs from May through August. Major producing areas include Miaoli, Taichung, Nantou, with additional production in Kaohsiung and Taitung.
What is the single most common deal-breaker document for shipping fresh plums into Taiwan?A phytosanitary certificate issued by the exporting country’s plant quarantine authority is a core requirement referenced in BAPHIQ quarantine materials for fresh fruits, and missing/unsatisfactory phytosanitary compliance can lead to destruction or reshipment.
Is Taiwan mainly an exporter or importer of fresh plums?Taiwan is a net importer. UN Comtrade data shown in UNdata for fresh plums (HS 080940) report imports far larger than exports (for example, 2023 imports are about USD 9.8 million versus negligible exports).
