How to apply a Taiwan tourist visa from Suriname

Application documents I need to prepare for mailing

• 1) A valid passport for at least 6 months
  
• 2) Fill in the electronic visa application form online. Go to the website https://visawebapp.boca.gov.tw & and then print them out after you completely fill the form. You will get two sheets of papers in total . If you did it correctly, behind your sheets or forms you will see a printed confirmation code.
  
  
• 3)Two recent passport photos 2X2 . If you print out your filled form , you will see the size of photo .—–*I have sent 2 big photos according to the form, and 2 normal small photos ( Just in case )
  
  
• 4) Travel Itinerary. You can get it a from a travel agency.
  
  
• 5) Supporting documents for the Reasons /the purpose of visit . Select your purpose of traveling while filling in the form and you need to send the supporting documents. —–*In my case, for my tourism’s purpose of travel , I have made my trip schedule and printed it out with a A4 paper about the hotel/AirBnB where I will stay & Visit locations where I go during the trip.
  
  
• 6) Visa fee: USD 50 for single entry+ USD6 processing fee for each bank draft to ” Embassy of the Republic of China ( Taiwan ) ” —— P/S: There is no bank draft in Suriname bank. I went to 4 local banks in Suriname to inform about bank draft 3 years ago. It might have some changes in 2023, so you can call and ask about the latest info about bank draft anytime. ————*In my case, I paid the visa fee via wire transfer at DSB in Suriname. I did not wait for my DSB payment confirmation receipt since it would take a few days for getting it from the bank. I did send the The Embassy of Republic of China (Taiwan) my payment receipt via email afterwards . Of course , you can do visa payment at any bank or even internet banking by yourself. Either ways, ask for the bank Info of Taiwan Embassy in ST Vincent by calling or sending the embassy an email .
  
  ——–REALLY IMPORTANT– YOU HAVE TO PAY EVERY BANK FEE ( FEES for BANK OF SURINAME, TRANSIT BANK, AND BANK OF ST VINCENT). Please make sure that you transfer the correct & sufficient amount of money for the visa fee including all the cost of the bank)—- Please ask for help in the bank with filling the form if it is your first time of doing it.
