I was born at taiwan and have a taiwanese passport. I was adopted and left the country with a european citizenship as a 1 year old infant. I left the country with my taiwanese passport and entered europe with a european.

I talked to the embassy last year and they said i could get the status as overseas chinese. SHould I do that? What would be the best to do if i want to travel to Taiwan? I do not want to serve military service there, I don’t even speak the language.

I know that they can claim service for me even if I go to Taiwan on a european passport, but if i change my status to overseas chinese I don’t have military duty, right?

Unless you want to stay a long time or re-establish residency in Taiwan just use your European passport. I assume you have visa-free entry and can stay 30 days.

You’ll need to get exit permission if you use your Taiwan passport.
