Visa requirements
Visas are not required for UK passport holders. Other passport holders should check with their travel agent or contact the Consulate or Embassy of the country they plan to visit.

Please note that there are strict policies imposed on PRC (Mainland) passport holders. We are aware that some UK institutions might have their Mainland Chinese colleagues representing them at the exhibitions and feel that we must inform you of the difficulties your Mainland Chinese colleagues may encounter when applying for a visa to enter Taiwan. PRC passport holders intending to attend the Exhibition are advised to contact the Taipei Representative Office as a matter of urgency.

Unfortunately, we are not able to assist with visa applications to Taiwan. Visitors will have to make their own arrangements through their travel agent or the Taipei Representative Office directly.
