The Kinmen Agreement or Kinmen Accord (simplified Chinese: 金门协议; traditional Chinese: 金門協議; pinyin: Jīnmén Xiéyì) is an agreement between Red Cross Society of the Republic of China and Red Cross Society of China in Kinmen, Fujian Province, Republic of China.[1][2][3] It is the first formal agreement reached by civil organizations across the Taiwan Strait.[1] The agreement was provoked by the Min Ping Yu No. 5540 and Min Ping Yu No. 5202 disasters in the previous two months, in which 25 and 21 mainland Chinese died respectively during repatriation to mainland China from Taiwan.[4] The Kinmen Agreement has served as the basis of cross-strait repatriation operations since its signing in September 1990.
