[marc69]

Well, the subject line says it all so I wonder if EU citizens need visa to visit Taiwan for two weeks?

I honestly don't know why people can't do some research on the subject matter before posting on the forum.

It took me all of 1 minute to find out that Americans can enter Taiwn for 30 days and United Kingdom citizens get 90 days.

But after your 1-minute research you still did not answer the question what is the rule for EU citizens (thanks god not every one in EU is from UK!)

Then it might be as well if you told us which country you're from. The EU is not a country.

I can confirm from experience that I have to Taiwan many times with my EU passport and always got stamped in under visa-exemption.

While Taiwan is not a country and therefore has no embassy in Thailand, there is the Taiwan Trade Office (and something like that) which functions as an embassy. You can ask there, if if your passport is one of those countries that need a visa, I'd think that's where it will be issued. (Many countries have such "trade offices" or "Institutes" in Taiwan, as they cannot officially have embassies.)

Thanks Upnotover and tombkk for your useful replies. That is exactly kind of information I was hoping to get.
