Interior ministry mulling additional requirement for Chinese-born residents-to-be
Interior ministry mulling additional requirement for Chinese-born residents-to-be
2025-08-14
The central government’s tightening of enforcement on Chinese-born residents’ immigration continues. Earlier this month, the interior ministry announced that it’s planning an additional requirement for those seeking residency: proof that they’ve nullified their PRC passport. China’s Taiwan Affairs Office has since warned citizens against cutting their own passports, while the Mainland Affairs Council said China’s warning is tantamount to a threat against their own citizens.
Since April, Chinese-born residents have had to prove they’ve given up household registration in China. And now, Taiwan is mulling an additional requirement for those seeking residency: proof that they’ve nullified their PRC passport, either with a formal declaration or the passport itself, with a cut corner. But China’s Taiwan Affairs Office warned citizens against cutting.
Zhu Fenglian (Aug. 13)
Taiwan Affairs Office spokesperson
The People’s Republic of China passport is strictly protected by law. We reserve the power to investigate and hold accountable any organization or individual that intentionally damages the PRC passport.
Liang Wen-chieh
Mainland Affairs Council spokesperson
If you want become an ROC national, then you must abide by the ROC’s laws. As we see it, Taiwan Affairs Office’s statement is tantamount to a threat, which we strongly condemn. We will follow our own laws in any case.
The Taiwan Affairs Office also slammed Interior Minister Liu Shyh-fang’s comments on Monday, in which she said that the two sides of the strait are not subordinate to one another and that Taiwan “recognizes the People’s Republic of China.”
Zhu Fenglian (Aug. 13)
Taiwan Affairs Office spokesperson
There is only one China in the world and Taiwan is a part of China. This is an indisputable historical and legal fact. We firmly oppose Taiwan independence and secession, and take concrete actions to safeguard our own interests and benefits, as well as uphold peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.
Lin Chun-hsien
Lawmaker (DPP)
Isn’t it that Beijing can’t stop talking about how there’s only one China in the world? So we’re recognizing that the PRC is China, how’s that something to be mad about? It’s really unfathomable how Beijing should be fuming over that.
Lai Jui-lung
Lawmaker (DPP)
One China means there’s only the People’s Republic of China and that the Republic of China does not exist. China should not imagine they could annex the ROC Taiwan with the One China claim. This is in no way acceptable to the people of Taiwan.
Ruling lawmakers are defending the interior minister’s remarks and at the same time, calling on China not to attempt to lump Taiwan together with China with their one-China rhetoric.

中不滿"台要求護照剪繳" 綠嗆:依台法律 天經地義
2025-08-14
內政部公告修改施行辦法，未來中國人想申請定居台灣要出具"放棄中國護照證明"、或把中國護照剪繳作廢，引來國台辦不滿，強調中國護照受中國法律保護，毀損的人要負起法律責任。陸委會指出，國台辦是在威脅中國籍配偶，予以譴責，也強調想加入中華民國、就得守中華民國法律，這是不能變的原則。
繼日前"清查"中國籍配偶是否放棄中國戶籍後，內政部再公告修改定居申請施行辦法，未來中國人想定居台灣，得出具"放棄中國護照"證明、或把護照剪下後繳回作廢，國台辦聞言，氣炸了。
[[國台辦發言人 朱鳳蓮(8.13)]]
“中華人民共和國護照受到法律嚴格保護。故意損毀中華人民共和國護照的有關組織 或個人，我們將依法追究其法律責任。”
[[陸委會副主委 梁文傑]]
“你要加入中華民國國籍，你就要遵守中華民國的法令。我們對昨天國台辦這樣的說法基本上是恐嚇，我們表示譴責，但是我們會照我們的法令走。”
這邊譴責，那邊又因為內政部長劉世芳說的"兩岸互不隸屬"、"我國承認中華人民共和國"等話語而跳腳。
[[國台辦發言人 朱鳳蓮(8.13)]]
“世界上只有一個中國，台灣是中國的一部分，這是不容質疑的歷史和法理事實。堅決反對台獨分裂，以實際行動維護自身利益福祉，和台海和平穩定。”
[[立委(民) 林俊憲]]
“北京不是整天在講世界上只有一個中國，那我們就承認你，你是中國，這樣也要玻璃心？這樣北京也要跳腳，真的是很難理解。”
[[立委(民) 賴瑞隆]]
“一個中國只有中華人民共和國，沒有中華民國存在，不要想去用一個中國併吞中華民國台灣，台灣人民絕不接受。”
綠營立委重申"兩岸互不隸屬"、希望中國別再用一中原則，套在台灣頭上。
