## Evidence timeline

- **Current official route — Taiwan ordinary passports: named electronic visitor visas** (eVisa)
  Taiwan MOFA BOCA's current outbound schedule identifies these destinations' electronic-visa routes for Taiwanese passport holders; Ecuador separately confirms pre-departure electronic issuance.
  - EC requires Taiwanese travellers to complete the online electronic-visa application before travel after Ecuador ended the previous visa-free treatment.
  - SY and TR are listed by BOCA for ordinary ROC passports with the stated visitor-purpose electronic-visa routes; each destination's current duration, purpose, documentation and border rules remain controlling.
  - This records electronic issuance, not merely online filing. It excludes work, residence, transit-only facilities, special documents, carrier checks and final-admission decisions.

- **Current official route — Taiwan ordinary passports: Saudi eVisa registration** (eVisa)
  The current official Saudi eVisa regular-passport selector includes Taiwan China, and its linked nationality authorization endpoint returns isAuthorized 1. This establishes a pre-travel electronic visa application route for ordinary Taiwan passports.
  - The route is an online eVisa application before travel, not visa-free or visa-on-arrival entry. The portal's displayed visa fee is 300 SAR before any other applicable charges.
  - The registration flow identifies the passport type as Regular Passport and the selected nationality as Taiwan China; its authorization response is reproduced at the cited official endpoint.
  - This policy does not establish access through a third-country visa, foreign residence, GCC residence, package travel, pilgrimage, transit, work, study, diplomatic or official documents. Final issuance and admission remain subject to the Saudi authorities' application and border decisions.
  - The separate Visit Saudi nationality dataset currently labels Taiwan China noneligible. The live eVisa issuance portal is given precedence for the eVisa route because it directly accepts the regular-passport nationality and exposes an authorized application continuation.
