Citizens of Armenia to be allowed to obtain electronic visa (eVisa)  to Taiwan

ArmInfo. Citizens of Armenia will be able to obtain an electronic visa (eVisa) to travel to Taiwan, according to the Bureau of Consular Affairs of Taiwan.

According to the Bureau of Consular Affairs of Taiwan, this  opportunity is available for two dozen countries.

"Citizens of the following countries are eligible for an eVisa upon  meeting the relevant criteria: Armenia, Bahrain, Bosnia and  Herzegovina, Colombia, Dominica, Ecuador, Haiti, Kazakhstan, Kuwait,  Mauritius, Montenegro, Oman, Panama, Peru, Qatar, Russia, Saudi  Arabia, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, and Uzbekistan," the  statement reads.

However, certain conditions apply to Armenia. It is noted that from  March 31, 2026 to March 31, 2027, Armenian citizens will be able to  apply for an e-visa only if they hold a valid Schengen visa or  residence permit, or a valid US visa or US residence permit valid for  more than 180 days.

A separate procedure is provided for Armenian citizens invited by  Taiwan's central government agencies or to participate in  international conferences and other events organized or sponsored by  Taiwan's government agencies. In this case, the host must obtain a  special code (Ecode) for the applicant in advance, which is necessary  for submitting the e-Visa application.

According to the published regulations, the e-visa is issued for  tourism and business trips, visiting relatives, and participating in  international conferences and sporting events. It is valid for three  months from the date of issue, is single-entry, and allows a stay in  Taiwan of no more than 30 days without the right to extend or change  the visa status. To apply for an eVisa, applicants must have a  passport valid for at least six months upon entry, complete an online  application, and pay the consular fee by credit card. Taiwanese  authorities reserve the right to request additional documents, and  the final decision on admission is made by the immigration office  upon entry.

Currently, Armenian citizens are required to enter Taiwan by visa. To  obtain one, they must submit documents to the Taiwanese embassy in  Moscow.
