Maybe, I don’t read chinese so I can’t be sure.
The Links I posted relate to new laws/amendments that came nto force only last week. The link you posted came into effect May 2000.
So the new stuff in chinese on the NIA is definetly relating to some new changes.
I took a quick look and it basically has to do with that topic: provisions for ROC nationals to leave, there was a link to an absence permit, not much else.
Yep, and it specially affects people with PARCs, if I’m not mistaken.
(By the way, what did you use for the English translation?)
The second link is the application plus Q&A -who needs to do it, the form to apply, etc.
This is for Taiwanese citizens. It says that if you want to know if you have some kind of “impediment” towards leaving teh country, you can look it up on teh Internet or go to teh local police station and check it out:
