Considering that Taiwan and Italy continue to deepen cooperation and exchanges in domains including the economy, trade, culture, education, science, technology, and tourism, the Republic of China (Taiwan) will establish the Milan Office of the Taipei Representative Office in Italy to further enhance substantive bilateral relations. Preparations are currently underway.
Many countries from around the world have consulates general in Milan. The Taiwan External Trade Development Council runs the Taiwan Trade Center in Milan to promote Taiwanese products. Moreover, Taiwanese companies such as semiconductor manufacturer GlobalWafers operate facilities in Milan and neighboring cities. On October 25, 2022, EVA Air launched nonstop service between Taipei and Milan.
Working closely with the Taipei Representative Office in Rome, the Milan Office will be well positioned to respond to the strong demand for business travel brought about by direct flights and will help advance and bolster Taiwan-Italy economic and trade exchanges.
