Visiting Taiwan: French citizen → Taiwan
✅
No visa needed — visa-exempt entry
France passport holders can enter Taiwan without a visa and stay up to 90 days, per the official Visa-Exempt Entry rules of the Bureau of Consular Affairs (MOFA).
The bottom line
- 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.
- The duration of stay starts from the day after arrival and is not extendable; you must depart by the end of it.
- Within seven days before arriving, complete the National Immigration Agency's online immigration arrival card (twac.immigration.gov.tw).
- Visa-exempt entry applies to formal passports only (ordinary, official/service, diplomatic) — emergency or temporary passports need a visa or a landing visa instead (US passport holders excepted). Immigration officers at the port of entry make the final decision.
