The Representative Office in Moscow for the Taipei-Moscow Economic and Cultural Coordination Commission represents the interests of Taiwan in Russia, functioning as a de facto embassy in the absence of diplomatic relations.

It is responsible for promoting bilateral relations between Taiwan and Russia, as well as handling consular-related business such as passports, visas, and document certification, as well as providing services for expatriates and emergency assistance for foreigners traveling abroad. Its functions are equivalent to embassies of countries with diplomatic relations.[1][2] The representative office set up an administrative group, a consular affairs group, an economic group, an education group, a cultural group, and a scientific and technological group to be responsible for related affairs. The consular jurisdiction is Russia, which also governs Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine (until 2022) and Uzbekistan.[3]
