The Taipei Representative Office in the EU and Belgium (Chinese: 駐歐盟兼駐比利時代表處; pinyin: Zhù Ōuméng Jiān Zhù Bǐlìshí Dàibiǎo Chù) represents interests of Republic of China (Taiwan) in Belgium, Luxembourg, as well as in the European Union institutions, in the absence of formal diplomatic relations, functioning as a de facto embassy.

It was established in 1976 as the Chambre de Commerce Sino-Belge.[1] It was later renamed Far East Trading Services, Inc.[3]

Since the closure of the Luxembourg City office in 2002, it has also been responsible for relations with Luxembourg.[4] The Luxembourg office had been established in 1975 as the Centre Sun Yat-sen.[1]

The Office is headed by a Representative, currently Remus Li-Kuo Chen [zh] appointed October 2022,[citation needed] replacing Tsai Ming-yen appointed in June 2020.[5]

Its counterparts in Taiwan are the European Economic and Trade Office,[6] Belgian Office,[7] and the Luxembourg Trade and Investment Office.[8]
