Emoji Meaning
Under Articles 118 and 160 of the Criminal Code of the Republic of China, it’s a criminal offense to insult the national flag or emblem of any country. The Taiwanese flag is hidden from the emoji keyboard on iOS devices when the device region is set to China mainland or (as of iOS 13.1.2) Hong Kong or Macau. iPhones made for the Chinese market will not display this emoji and will instead show a missing‑character “tofu” (☒) where the flag should appear; the same happens on any iOS device with its region set to China mainland. Hong Kong and Macau only hide this emoji from the emoji keyboard. This emoji is also not available within the emoji set created by Chinese mobile manufacturer Huawei - it will render as a blank space. The Flag: Taiwan emoji is a flag sequence combining 🇹 Regional Indicator Symbol Letter T and 🇼 Regional Indicator Symbol Letter W. These two symbols display as a single flag on platforms that support the sequence.
The Republic of China, commonly known as Taiwan, is a partially recognized state in East Asia. Its capital is Taipei City.
The flag features a red field covering three quarters of the design, with a blue canton filling the remaining quarter that bears a white sun showcasing 12 rays.
