Starting from August 28, 2026, the ROC (Taiwan) will allow residents of the Republic of Uganda to apply for visas to enter Taiwan. However, issuance of visas to residents of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) will remain suspended until November 28, 2026. These measures are in line with the antipandemic policies of Taiwan’s Centers for Disease Control under the Ministry of Health and Welfare.
The measures will not apply to the following:
- Students admitted to an academic degree program in Taiwan
- Personnel on diplomatic or official business
- Spouses and minor children (under 18 years of age) of Taiwan nationals
- Visitors traveling for emergency or humanitarian reasons, such as attending a funeral or visiting a critically ill family member
The aforementioned measures may be adjusted accordingly due to the development of the Ebola outbreak or alterations to the nation’s antipandemic policy.
