Taipei Economic and Cultural Center in India

The Taipei Economic and Cultural Center in India; Chinese: 駐印度代表處; pinyin: Zhù Yìndù Dàibiǎo Chù) is the representative office of Taiwan in India, functioning as a de facto embassy in the absence of diplomatic relations. It was established in 1995.

It is headed by a Representative, currently Tien Chung-kwang.

The Center is also responsible for relations with Nepal and Bhutan, and has joint responsibility for Bangladesh with the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Thailand in Bangkok. Between 2004 and 2009, affairs with Bangladesh were handled by the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Bangladesh in Dhaka.

There is also a Taipei Economic and Cultural Center in Chennai. This has responsibility for Sri Lanka and the Maldives, as well as the southern states and territories of India.

Its counterpart body in Taiwan is the India-Taipei Association in Taipei.
