Landing visa / on-arrival fee (if required)

BOCA: Additional NT$800 or US$24 at port/upon arrival.

About the fee

Taiwan Landing visa / on-arrival fee (if applicable) applies to citizens of specific countries who are eligible to enter Taiwan visa-free or obtain a visa on arrival. However, this category is not relevant for Georgian citizens. Georgian passport holders need a pre-obtained visa to enter Taiwan, which is issued by Taiwan's overseas missions.

This means that if you are a citizen of Georgia and are planning to travel to Taiwan, you will not be able to take advantage of the Landing visa or pay the on-arrival fee. You will need to contact a Taiwanese embassy or consulate (which, for Georgia, are often located in neighboring countries or regional centers) and obtain the appropriate visa based on the purpose of your trip.

Unlike countries like Singapore or Japan , where Georgian citizens may have a simplified visa regime or visa-free entry under certain conditions, Taiwan requires a visa to be obtained in advance. This process is more similar to visa requirements in Canada or Australia , where application and approval are mandatory prior to travel.

Georgian citizens must choose the correct visa category. For example, if your purpose is tourism or visiting friends/family, you should apply for a Tourist visa (if your citizenship is eligible for an eVisa, which is not currently the case for Georgian citizens); if your purpose is to study , work , or live long-term, then you will need a Resident visa. It is important to carefully review the requirements for each category to avoid having your application rejected.

GetVisa.ge recommends that you thoroughly research visa requirements and required documentation before planning your trip to Taiwan. Our services will help you select the right visa category and prepare your application to ensure your trip is a success.

Choosing the right category: Make sure you choose the right category of Taiwan visa (tourist, business, student, etc.), as the Landing visa does not apply to Georgian citizens. Choosing the wrong category is one of the most common reasons for application rejection.

Do your research: Before traveling to Taiwan, thoroughly research visa requirements on the Taiwan Ministry of Foreign Affairs website or GetVisa.ge, as rules can change. This is especially important for countries like South Korea , where visa policies are frequently updated.

Complete documentation: Prepare all required documents in full. This includes your passport, financial documents, travel itinerary, and invitation letters (if applicable). Incomplete documentation is a common reason for rejection, just like with a Japanese visa.
