Can I apply for a visa to travel to Taiwan several times a year?

You can just do a self-guided tour.

He Rongcun, head of the immigration department of the Taiwan authorities, made the above remarks when attending the 5th Cross-Strait Tourism Exchange Roundtable in Taipei. Ho Rong-cun pointed out that you can apply for a multi-year visa only if you meet at least one of the following conditions:

1. Count back 1 year from the date of application, if you travel to Taiwan more than 2 times on your own;

2. If the "Ocean Pass" issued by the mainland (a permit for mainland residents to travel to Taiwan) is multi-signed, it can also be applied for. He said that as long as one of the above conditions is met, one can enjoy multiple visas for one year and does not need to apply for a visa every time he travels to Taiwan. However, the current policy of the Chase Permit issued by the mainland does not allow people going to Taiwan to apply for multiple visas per year. Therefore, if you apply for multiple visas for free travel to Taiwan, you must still apply for a single visa each time before going to Taiwan. Only after obtaining a personal travel endorsement can you travel freely to Taiwan.
