We have created a list of the embassies, consulates, institutes, trade and representative offices of over 50 countries with locations in Taiwan. See the list of embassies and consulates below
Brief Background on Diplomatic Relations in Taiwan
Taiwan, known officially as “The Republic of China (ROC),” has a unique status in the world of diplomatic relations. Only 13 out of the 193 United Nation member states formally recognize Taiwan as an independent nation. The reason behind this is broadly referred to as the “One China Policy.” The One China Policy is in essence the political stance advocated by the Chinese mainland government (PRC), which maintains that there is “only one China” and that Taiwan is a part of China’s territory and will eventually come back under Chinese control.
Following shifting relations in the 1970’s and 80’s and China’s entry to the UN, many countries, when deciding to formalize relations with China, gave up, or subsequently have been forced to give up, formal recognition of Taiwan as an independent nation state.
Unofficially, however, the diplomatic status of Taiwan is a different story. While many countries do not have “formal relations” with Taiwan, they often count and are counted as “diplomatic allies.” Despite intense pressure in recent years from Beijing, Taiwan has worked to develop and expand its network of diplomatic allies which has helped to establish and normalize relations with other countries, generate a sense of solidarity with Taiwan, and enhance a number of robust trade partnerships.
In this sense, while many countries do not have an “official embassy” in Taiwan, they often will operate private institutes or trade offices within Taiwan that function in many of the same ways that an official embassy or consulate operate.
When you are looking for help from your “embassy” in Taiwan, these are the institutions to which you will want to turn.
