The Austrian Office, Taipei (Austrian German: Österreich Büros, Taipei; Chinese: 奧地利台北辦事處; pinyin: Àodìlì Táiběi Bànshì Chù) represents the interests of Austria in Taiwan in the absence of formal diplomatic relations, functioning as a de facto embassy. Its counterpart in Austria is the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Vienna.[2]

It was established in 1981 as the Austrian Trade Delegation.[1]
