FM warns designation on arrival cards will be changed from "Republic of

Korea" to "South Korea"

Foreign Minister Lin Chia-lung is reiterating that if Seoul continues to
ignore a request to alter its e-arrival card system by March 31, his office
will change South Korea's designation on Taiwan's arrival cards from
"Republic of Korea" to "South Korea."

It comes after the Ministry of Foreign Affairs last week changed the
designation of South Korean nationals in government-issued A-R-Cs in
response to Seoul's mislabeling of Taiwan in its e-arrival card system.

A-R-C holders from South Korea will now be identified as being from "South
Korea" rather than the "Republic of Korea."

Seoul rolled-out its online entry system on February 24 of last year to
replace paper arrival card.

Taiwan is listed as "China (Taiwan)" in dropdown menus for both "place of
departure" and "next destination."

According to the foreign minister, the South Korean government has ignored
repeated requests from Taiwan to change the designation, but the Lai
administration has not received a response.
