RIP Visa-Free Runners (2012-2020)

Not while the 3 + 4 remains in place.

Well, if I didn’t have a gold visa, 3 months + visa runs would be still ok to live here long term. Especially since you probably only have to do quarantine the first time you arrive (if taiwan government is not going crazy lol).

:grinning:

HUZZAH! My plan B in case Japan doesn’t approve my unguided tourist visa just came to life!

The older visa free entry to Taiwan granted to Russian passport holders (a program initiated in 2018) is now in the rubbish bin of history.

I wonder what Russia did to deserve this.

Well, they added Taiwan to the list of “hostile nations”. But they didn’t add China to it :man_shrugging:

US pressure ?

Perhaps simply common sense, especially after Putin and Xi’s latest tete-a-tete.

Since the average Russian doesn’t seem to have any control over their govt seems unfair to single them out for punishment

However possibly for security reasons as they don’t want any Russian spies sent in to cause disturbance like say set off bombs
