Taiwan on Friday extended Filipinos’ visa-free privileges for another year.
Its Ministry of Foreign Affairs said Filipinos, except those holding diplomatic or official/service passports, are eligible for the visa exemption program with a duration of stay of up to 14 days effective August 1, 2023.
Citizens of Brunei and Thailand are also entitled to the 14-day visa-free privilege, which will run until July 31, 2024.
”Holders of Brunei, Philippines and Thailand passports must have: A proof of accommodation (hotel) booking, host/sponsor’s contact information and sufficient travel funds,” Taiwan’s Bureau of Consular Affairs said.
”The duration of stay starts from the day after arrival and is not extendable. Foreign visitors must depart by the end of the said duration.”
The ministry said the extension was made following a comprehensive review of existing visa and entry measures.
