I saw them switching their passports sometimes when I used to fly to Vietnam regularly.
The data on foreign residents in Taiwan offers a fascinating glimpse into the diverse international community living on this island. While the majority hail from neighboring Asian nations, the presence of individuals from nearly every corner of the globe adds to Taiwanâs cultural richness. The uneven distribution of foreign nationals across the country reflects both economic factors and regional opportunities, providing a deeper understanding of Taiwanâs demographic landscape
⌠this data only accounts for legal residents in Taiwan, primarily those with an ARC (Alien Resident Certificate) or APRC (Alien Permanent Resident Certificate). However, the NIA website does not specify precisely which individuals fall under the category of âresident.â
I know Filipinos who have done this. Indeed, I have had friends who worked at MECO who asked me why I have not done it yet. I probably will

Yeah Filipinos I know can do this. But the Vietnamese law says otherwise
Well maybe they are like Taiwan then and their citizens just find workarounds on offering
an âunofficialâ official renunciation declararion for Taiwan or else getting it back again.
Iâve seen them taking their passports out after they get on the plane going to Vietnam and putting away the Taiwanese one.
FYI Vietnam is extremely corrupt you can get legitimate visas issued to you by WhatsApp and a payment in less than a day 
through unofficial channels to âspeed things upâ. $$$$$. Not fake, legit. Now could you imagine the same kind of thing happened with overseas Vietnamese needing this and that document ?
Of course you could right.

When I was traveling at the airport and asked some Vietnamese immigrants who had naturalized about the petition they told me they had also resumed Vietnamese citizenship and kept their ROC citizenship.
