Visitor Visa (tourism)：베트남 → 대만
Vietnamese citizens living in the United States need a visa for Taiwan — either the online Travel Authorization Certificate (TAC) from the National Immigration Agency if you hold qualifying documents, or a visitor visa lodged after completing the online form at the R.O.C. (Taiwan) overseas mission in the United States that serves your state of residence.
Republic of China (Taiwan) Visitor Visa for short stays of up to six months — apply online at visawebapp.boca.gov.tw, then lodge the printed form and documents at an R.O.C. overseas mission. Qualifying Vietnamese citizens can use the online Travel Authorization Certificate (TAC) instead.

준비 시작 시기
출발일 21일–45일 전에 준비를 시작하십시오.
Vietnam is not on Taiwan's visa-exemption list, so most Vietnamese passport holders apply for a visitor visa at an R.O.C. overseas mission. Citizens of Vietnam can alternatively apply online for an R.O.C. (Taiwan) Travel Authorization Certificate from the National Immigration Agency if they meet the portal's qualifying-document conditions.
If you plan to use the TAC, check the NIA portal's current conditions carefully: since 10:00 a.m. on September 14, 2023, a Vietnamese passport holder submitting the application with a visa, resident certificate or permanent resident certificate issued by Japan/Korea as the supporting document is no longer eligible for a TAC.
Complete the visitor-visa application form online on BOCA's official portal (visawebapp.boca.gov.tw), then print it out and sign it — the printed form is lodged with your paper documents.
Assemble the tourism checklist: passport (original and photocopy) valid 6 months with blank pages, two color photos, proof of stable financial resources such as a bank statement, your travel itinerary and a return ticket.
Lodge your application with the necessary documents and the statutory fee at the R.O.C. (Taiwan) overseas mission serving your place of residence. An interview may be required when necessary.
The mission decides at its discretion — the R.O.C. can refuse a visa without providing an explanation, and the application fee is not refundable. Once issued, check the visa's validity, duration of stay and entries before you travel.
