The UK has no diplomatic relations with Taiwan but a strong, unofficial relationship, based on deep and growing ties in a wide range of areas, underpinned by shared democratic values.
The Department for Science, Innovation and Technology was newly created on 7 February 2023, and the Department has since had discussions with representatives of the Taiwan administration.
