Does a US provisional patent application's priority date extend to Taiwan?

Let’s say I file a US provisional patent application on 1 Jan 2023, and then file US + Taiwanese patents on 1 Dec 2023, referring to the US provisional patent application previously filed.

Will I be able to get the priority date of the Taiwanese patent to be 1 Jan 2023, or will it be 1 Dec 2023?

In theory it should be reciprocal for US and Taiwanese companies.

It’s a good question for a lawyer though.
