Taiwan imposes automatic extension for certain visas

In response to border control measures and flight bans implemented around the world to contain the coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) outbreak, Taiwan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) announced that all travelers who entered Taiwan on or before March 21, on a visitor visa, a landing visa, or through a visa-waiver program and who have not overstayed their legal stay period will be granted an automatic 30-day extension.

No application is required. The total period of stay cannot exceed 180 days. These conditions are subject to change and may be adjusted as circumstances require.
