[Trending Now] Good News! Taiwan Is Now Visa-free for Qualified PH Passport Holders!

Taiwan is now offering visa-free entry for Filipinos who have previously visited selected countries requiring visa, giving more access to the Filipinos to work or have their vacation there.

ABS-CBN said the announcement was posted in the official website of Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in the Philippines.

In the statement, Filipinos who have been issued an entry visa to Australia, Canada, Japan, Korea, New Zealand, any of the Schengen countries, the United Kingdom, or the United States may apply for visa exemption.

Filipinos who are also valid residents or have a permanent residency card from said countries may also enter Taiwan without a visa.

Applicants only need to apply for an exemption authorization certificate online and they should have a return air or ferry ticket and should have never been employed as a blue-collar worker in Taiwan to be eligible for visa exemption.
