The American Institute in Taiwan is now allowing visa applications for commercial (B-1) and tourist (B-2) visas to be mailed to their office. Anyone holding a five year multiple-entry visa whose ROC passport has expired within the last 12 months does not have to apply in for a new visa.
美國在協會開始實施郵寄申請簽證辦法，凡商務（B-1）和觀光（B-2）簽證申請人，如獲有全面有效簽證（五年多次入境），並且其中華民國護照已在過去十二個月間過期，可以郵寄申請新簽證，不必親自前往美國在台協會辦理。
