This guidance applies to applicants who: - Hold dual citizenship with **Taiwan** - Are applying for a China visa using a non-Taiwan passport China does not recognize Taiwan as a separate country and treats Taiwanese nationals as Chinese citizens, regardless of any other citizenship held. --- #### 🧾 Questionnaire Requirements When completing the visa questionnaire: - You must declare **China as a former nationality** - You must enter your **Taiwanese name in Chinese characters** in the field asking for your name in your native language Information must match your passport records. --- #### 📄 Additional Documents to Upload In addition to standard visa requirements, you must upload: - A copy of the bio page of your Taiwanese passport The consulate may request additional documentation based on your individual background and travel history. --- #### ⚠️ Possible Travel Document Requirement In some cases, Taiwanese citizens may be required to apply for a **Chinese travel document instead of a visa**. Important: - A travel document is not a visa - It is a separate application process - Visa agencies, including Swift, cannot assist with Chinese Travel Document applications If the consulate determines that you must apply for a travel document, you must follow their instructions directly. Swift is unable to guide you through this process. --- #### 💡 Important Notes - Requirements are determined solely by the Chinese consulate - Additional documentation may be requested without prior notice - Visa issuance is not guaranteed Swift has no ability to influence consulate decisions on nationality or visa eligibility. If you have questions about your specific situation, contact the Chinese consulate directly. - [FAQs](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/faqs?hsLang=en) - [Visas](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/visas?hsLang=en) - [Passports](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/passports?hsLang=en) - [Processing Times](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/processing-times?hsLang=en) - [Government Requirements](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/government-requirements?hsLang=en) - [Payments & Billing](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/payments-billing?hsLang=en) - [Shipping & Delivery](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/shipping-delivery?hsLang=en) - [China Visas](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/china-visas?hsLang=en) - [Communication & Support](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/communication-support?hsLang=en) - [Tracking and Status](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/tracking-and-status?hsLang=en) - [Passports](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/passports) - Visas - [Visas](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/visas) - [China Visas](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/china-visas) - Your Order - [Shipping & Delivery](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/shipping-delivery) - [Tracking & Status](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/tracking-and-status) - [Payments & Billing](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/payments-billing) - Requirements - [Processing Times](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/processing-times) - [Government Requirements](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/government-requirements) - Support - [FAQs](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/swift-passport-and-visa-services-frequently-asked-questions) - [Communication & Support](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/swift-knowledge-base/communication-support) [![Swift\_logo\_reverse1](https://support.swiftpassportservices.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Swift_logo_reverse1.webp?width=190&height=43&name=Swift_logo_reverse1.webp "Swift_logo_reverse1")](https://www.swiftpassportservices.com/) Copyright © 2026, Swift Passport & Visa Services
