Visit (visa exemption)：영국 → 대만
British citizens living in the United States can visit Taiwan visa-free for up to 90 days — extendable up to 180 days in total — provided the passport shows British Citizen status; no visa needed in advance, so the process is identical whether you travel from the US or anywhere else.
Short visit to Taiwan under the R.O.C. visa-exemption program — no visa to obtain in advance; you receive your entry stamp at the border and can stay up to 90 days, extendable to 180 for UK passport holders.

United Kingdom passport holders with British Citizen status are eligible for Taiwan's visa-exemption program with a stay of up to 90 days — and UK passport holders can apply to extend the stay up to 180 days in total.
Carry a confirmed return or onward air/sea ticket (with a visa for the next destination where needed) and a confirmed seat reservation for your departure flight.
Unlike most visa-exempt nationals, UK (and Canadian) passport holders enter for 90 days and can apply to extend the stay up to 180 days in total — see BOCA's official notice for the extension procedure.
