Turkish Trade Office in Taipei


The Turkish Trade Office in Taipei represents the interests of Turkey in Taiwan in the absence of formal diplomatic relations, functioning as a de facto embassy. It was established in 1993.
Turkey had diplomatic relations with Taiwan as the Republic of China until 1971, when it recognised the People's Republic of China.
Its counterpart in Turkey is the Taipei Economic and Cultural Mission in Ankara.
The Office is headed by the Representative, İsmet Erikan.
