台湾(Taiwan (Chinese Taipei)) 前往 莱索托(Lesotho) 签证要求

Yes, Taiwan ordinary passport holders need a visa to visit Lesotho. Taiwan is not on Lesotho's visa-exempt list, and Lesotho's online eVisa system is currently suspended, so you must apply through a Lesotho diplomatic mission or by emailing the Immigration Department before you travel. A Taiwan (TW) ordinary passport holder requires a visa for tourism or a short visit to Lesotho. Lesotho grants visa-free entry to roughly 50 nationalities (mostly Commonwealth states, the USA, Japan, South Korea, and EU/EEA countries for shorter periods), but Taiwan is not among them, so a visa must be obtained before travel. Lesotho launched an electronic visa (eVisa) platform in 2017, but the Ministry of Home Affairs has officially suspended the online eVisa application system; the portal now redirects applicants to apply via a Lesotho diplomatic mission or by email at VISA-Applications.Immigration@gov.ls. Because Taiwan has no resident Lesotho embassy, applications are typically handled through the nearest accredited Lesotho mission (for example in Pretoria/Johannesburg, South Africa) or by email, supported by the standard documentation. Lesotho issues single-entry visas valid for 3 months and multiple-entry visas valid for 6 months. A practical note for travelers: most visitors reach Lesotho overland through South Africa, which is itself a visa-required destination for Taiwan passport holders, so transit/entry arrangements through South Africa should be planned separately. Given the suspended eVisa channel and the lack of any confirmed visa-free or visa-on-arrival pathway for Taiwan nationals, the conservative and accurate verdict is visa-required: secure the visa in advance and carry the approval before departure.
