Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Under what conditions can I apply for a Taiwan Travel Authorization Certificate?

First of all, know that the citizens of Laos can apply for a Taiwan Travel Authorization Certificate only if they have one of the following two documents:

  • You hold a valid resident or permanent resident card, a valid entry visa (may be electronic visa) or a resident card or visa that has expired less than 10 years before your arrival date in Taiwan issued by Australia, Canada, Japan, South Korea, New Zealand, any of the EU and Schengen countries, the United Kingdom, or the United States, or
  • You have an entry visa or resident card issued by Taiwan (ROC) in the last 10 years, and you have no record of any law violations in Taiwan. Please note that if you do not have any of these two documents, it is not possible to apply for a Taiwan Travel Authorization Certificate.

What are the requirements for a Taiwan Travel Authorization Certificate?

Apart from the requirements above, you must also have at hand the following documents when you apply for a Taiwan Travel Authorization Certificate:

  • Valid permanent passport – the visa policy of Taiwan dictates that your passport has to remain valid for at least 6 months after your arrival date in Taiwan
  • Onward/return flight or ferry ticket
  • E-mail address
  • Means of payment – iVisa accepts credit or debit cards, PayPal, Alipay, and WeChat

Since September 2022, Taiwan is opening to visa-free countries. Here's the list of nationalities that can travel to Taiwan without a visa:

Here's the complete updated list: Andorra, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Eswatini, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Marshall Island, Monaco, Netherlands, New Zealand, North Macedonia, Norway, Palau, Paraguay, Poland, Portugal, Romania, San Marino, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Tuvalu, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, Vatican City State, Belize, Nauru, St. Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent, and the Grenadines.

How does the online application process work?

What you have to do is pretty simple. Once you notice that you have everything necessary at hand, you have to fill in an online application form. That should not take you very long. Besides, if you have questions or concerns, you can always contact iVisa’s customer support. The service can be reached via online chat or phone 24/7, and it is entirely free of charge. The form you have to complete has two easy steps. The first one focuses on general information and processing time, while the second expects you to handle the payment and to review your form. Do not submit an application that has errors in it. That will lead to an invalid Taiwan Travel Authorization Certificate. When you are through, you can hit the submit button, and that is pretty much it.
