Entry requirements

All visitors to Taiwan must have a valid passport for the duration of their stay as well as proof of a return ticket. Visas are not required by US and EU nationals except nationals of Denmark, Finland and Ireland who do require visas. Ellegible EU and US nationals may stay without a visa for up to 14 days, this period can not be extended so stays of a longer duration require a visa. Visas can be obtained from your local Taipei Representative Office and cost £25 for a single entry visa or £50 for a multiple entry visa.

Addresses

There is no Embassy in the UK so all visa related enquiries should be directed to the Taipei Representative Office:

Tel: (020) 7 396 9152 

The British government does not currently recognise Taiwan as a state and there are therefore no diplomatic relations with it. Visitors who need consular advice should contact the British Embassy in China. There are however unofficial British commercial and cultural offices which may be able to help with some enquiries:
