My wife is Taiwanese, with a Taiwanese passport - I assume that's not a problem. (has Nexus/GE from Canada)

My son(s) hold a Taiwanese and Canadian passport. They have to use their Taiwanese passport when entering/leaving Taiwan because they are otherwise subject to mandatory military service. Everytime we go to Taiwan, they have to apply for an exit permit as they are not residents of Taiwan. Given this situation, can they register for this too? (have NEXUS/GE from Canada)

[We all reside in Canada]
Taiwanese passports can use eGate for free and can sign up for it upon arrival. Takes like 5 minutes.
As for the compulsatory military service, it doesn't matter which passport you enter with, they are all connected and if you have the overseas Taiwanese permit and not stay overstay certain of days per year, you can enter with a non Taiwanese passport (even if you have one). So if your sons can exit Taiwan, that means they have the oversea Taiwanese (exit) permit AFAIK.
