List of diplomatic missions in Taiwan
The diplomatic missions in Taiwan include embassies; trade and cultural missions include representative offices. Due to the special political status and One-China policy, Taiwan is only recognized by twelve countries, all of whom have embassies in Taipei. Except for the Holy See, the embassies of the other 11 countries are located in the Diplomatic Quarter. In addition, approximately 50 countries, which do not have diplomatic relations with the Republic of China, have established representative offices and other offices in Taiwan, which have a wide array of titles. These institutions have the same functions as embassies or consulates, that is, they provide diplomatic services such as visa processing and passport renewal. The personnel stationed there are usually diplomats or government-authorized personnel. During the Japanese colonial period, a number of countries including the Republic of China and the United States of America maintained consulates in Taipei.
