Lawyer Li Yusheng from Fidelity Law Firm stated that if there is a locked door outside the corridor of a shared apartment, delivery drivers entering at will may raise concerns about trespassing. In addition, if the delivery driver is looking for valuables instead of just finding a place to put the goods, there may also be concerns about theft. If a crime is ultimately found, the delivery driver may be charged with attempted aggravated trespassing, which carries a statutory penalty of imprisonment for not less than six months and not more than five years, and may also be subject to a fine of not more than NT$500,000.
