The Turkish Trade Office in Taipei (Turkish: Taipei Türk Ticaret Ofisi) (Chinese: 駐台北土耳其貿易辦事處; pinyin: Zhù Táiběi Tǔ'ěrqí Màoyì Bànshì Chù) 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.[1]
Turkey had diplomatic relations with Taiwan as the Republic of China until 1971, when it recognised the People's Republic of China.[3]
Its counterpart in Turkey is the Taipei Economic and Cultural Mission in Ankara.[4]
The Office is headed by the Representative, İsmet Erikan.[2]
