The Liaison Office of the Republic of South Africa (Chinese: 南非聯絡辦事處) represents the interests of South Africa in Taiwan in the absence of formal diplomatic relations, functioning as a de facto embassy. It also provides visa services.[2] Its counterpart of Taiwan is the Taipei Liaison Office in the Republic of South Africa in Pretoria.[3]
The Office is headed by a Representative, currently Robert Seraki Matsebe.[1]

History
The Office was formerly the Embassy of the Republic of South Africa.[4] South Africa first established a Consulate in Taipei in 1967, which was upgraded to a Consulate General three years later.[5] In 1976, this was upgraded to an Embassy.[6]
However, when South Africa recognised the People's Republic of China, its diplomatic relations with Taiwan were terminated.[7] This led to the establishment of the Office in 1998.[8]
