Travel Visa

What is a visa?

  • A permission certificate or a stamp on a non-citizen applicant's passport to enter a particular country. To apply for a visa, you will need to locate a Taiwan Representative Office nearest you.

 

Types of Visas

  • 1. Visitor, Business Visa: (effective for 7 to 30 days)
  • ● Apply BEFORE arriving in Taiwan.
  • ● For most patients, a visitor visa offers sufficient time to undergo any kind of medical checkups, examinations, and treatments. In the event that you are required to stay for longer than 1 month, we will assist you in applying for a medical visa. To extend your stay, we will provide you with a formal certificate of diagnosis to request for time extension.
