In fact, mainland Chinese officials to date have yet to allow PRC citizens to tour Taiwan. But if mainland Chinese apply to travel abroad, and then transit through a third country to come to Taiwan, this counts only as a violation of regulations, so that even if caught, the offender is only fined RMB6,000 and is not detained.
事實上，大陸官方迄今並未開放大陸人民來台觀光，只是大陸民眾若申請出國遊玩，中途轉往台灣觀光只算違規，即使被查獲，亦只處以六千元人民幣罰鍰，無需拘留。
