Visafar / UK residence permit / Vietnam / Taiwan
Can Vietnamese passport holders with a UK residence permit enter Taiwan?
Yes. With a valid UK residence permit, Vietnamese passport holders can enter Taiwan with an electronic travel authorisation (up to 30 days). On the passport alone they would need a visa.
