How would the Entry-Exit permit work for PRC passport holders who reside outside the mainland ? Wouldn't it theoretically be easier, since they don't need to get permission from mainland China to leave the mainland => Taiwan ?
Getting the Entry-exit permit (入台證) is easy if you live outside China. But you need permission from mainland China to fly mainland -> Taiwan regardless of where you live which is called 大通證 and very hard to get. You can see more details here
