Hi, I'll briefly go over our situation:

  • Husband, British citizen with Taiwan residency, living in Taiwan
  • Wife, Taiwan citizen (no British residency), living in Taiwan
  • Child, Taiwan & British citizen, living in Taiwan

In the event of war, me and my daughter (as holders of foreign passports) would likely be able to leave Taiwan and fly to the UK easily (via commercial or evacuation routes). However, my wife, who only holds Taiwan nationality and no residency in any foreign country might struggle.

I'm looking to find a third country (not UK or Taiwan) where me, my wife and child may be able to get residency (without the need to actually live there) through opening a business or perhaps a small investment. Then, in the case of emergency, we could all enter that third country together. Ideally, this third country where we gain residency could also lead to us gaining citizenship there (without needing to renounce our original citizenships) but this is not necessary. Finally, an Asian country would be best.

Does anyone have any leads or advice that might help?

My bet, if the guy lived in Taiwan, it will be difficult to him to live in Argentina in many aspects. I considered that option myself, spent 3 months in Argentina, got robbed twice, tired of crazy inflation, protests under my windows every week, doing cambio and exchanging dollar cash on a black market, overall being paranoid about my things stolen - and ended up in Taiwan, which is probably, geopolitics aside, is the safest place I've ever lived. Plus, new president...Let's just say, things look unpredictable now in Argentina.
