Electronic Visa

Vietnamese visitors applying for a Taiwan entry permit through the online review system must meet the following requirements:

1. Basic conditions (must be fully met):

- Passport is still valid for more than 6 months (time calculated from the time the guest enters Taiwan, not from the time of online registration).

- Never been to Taiwan to work.

- Must have a return train or plane ticket or ticket to the next destination outside of Taiwan.

- Never had a record of violating laws or regulations in Taiwan.

2. Special conditions (only one of the following documents is required):

- Vietnamese citizens with a permanent residence card, residence card or visa that is still valid (including electronic visa) or has expired within the last 10 years from the following countries: USA, Canada, UK, Australia, New Zealand, Schengen area.

- If you register with an Australian or New Zealand e-visa, this visa must be valid.

- Have a residence card issued by Taiwan within the past 10 years and have not violated the law. However, this preferential condition does not apply to people with a visa with the symbol FL (work visa), X (other visa), P (Quan Hong visa) or a residence card for workers. If Vietnamese customers have previously applied for a regular visa (visa attached to the passport), they can use this visa to apply for an e-visa next time.

The e-visa approval process takes about 10 minutes and is free. If approved, the Taiwan e-visa is valid for 3 months. Visitors can enter Taiwan up to 6 times a year, with a maximum stay of 14 days. If the application form is filled out incorrectly, they can reapply immediately. People with visas to the above countries but the visa has stamps such as: void, canceled, canceled without prejudice are not eligible.

Visas are only valid for holders of official passports. Other temporary, emergency or unofficial passports such as travel documents are not applicable. Holders of work permits are also not applicable.

- Proof of occupation, including labor contract, health insurance, social insurance (copy, original attached for comparison), leave application with manager's signature and company seal. If you are a company director, only the company's business registration certificate is required (original will be returned after comparison).
