Renouncing Dual Citizenship

If your parents have household registration, check it. If you are registered to their HHR at birth by your parents, you have a citizenship, unless they renounced their and your nationality later. BTW, nationality and citizenship are different. You do not get a citizenship automatically. To get it, you should be registered to the HHR by your parents.

If your parents don’t have HHR, you do not have a citizenship.

Nationality Act

But nationals, who reside overseas and were born overseas, and have no household registration in the ROC or moved overseas before December 31 of the year they were 15 years old, shall be excluded.
