History
Sweden established official diplomatic relations with the People's Republic of China in 1950, which required the Swedish government to dissociate with the Kuomintang leadership in Taiwan.
The Taipei Mission was established as the Taipei Trade, Tourism and Information Office in 1981 and renamed to Taipei Mission in Sweden in 1994.
