the three years since the Act was promulgated on April 30, 2022, there have been a total of 7,906 same-
sex marriage registrations across the country. The MOI will also continue to promote the household

tity card to enhance anti-counterfeiting mechanisms and functions.

cial Association Act to reduce restrictions on civil associations and strengthen public monitoring. Also,
in response to global trends, the MOI has simplified the requirements for foreign civil institutions and
organizations in applying for the establishment and registration of offices in Taiwan, helping to create
a friendly environment for international bodies and expand Taiwan's international space. The MOI also
continues to improve the functions of the Civil Association Information System thereby incentivizing
