Welcome to the Website of the UK Visa Application Centres in Taiwan

The UK Visa Application Centres are officially authorized by the British Trade and Cultural Office in Taipei to accept applications for all categories of visa from Taiwan residents and visit visa applications (only) from applicants who are not resident in Taiwan. This site is designed to offer advice and guidance on the visa process. It also contains important information on visa application procedures and related details. Please go through the contents carefully before making a visa application.

You need to fill form online and we would advise you to make an appointment prior to your visit to the UK Visa Application Centres to submit your application.

You can visit the Application Centres without an appointment between 0800 hrs to 1500 hrs (Monday - Friday). Such applicants will be assigned to a regular queue. Please note that the number of applicants allowed into the regular queue may be restricted during peak seasons. 

All visa applicants must submit their visa application in person at one of the two Visa Application Centres in Taiwan. Please click here for the address of the UK Visa Applications Centres.
