So it could happen, the fact that one had not seen a flag it does not mean
that such a flag do not exist.
I my last message about Chinese Taipei, I said that the Chinese Taipei Olympic
Committee flag is used in all sporting events Chinese Taipei takes part,
excepting those already mentioned: University Games, Paralympic Games and
Deaflympics in which Chinese Taipei Team flies a distinctive flag in each one of
them.
The yellow flag is not a football team flag nor a national flag, but the flag
(at least the former one), as I stated before, of the Chinese Taipei Football
Association, e.g. it is an organization’s flag [see the attachments]. The yellow
flag which has at leat two variants: one with the body’s name in red chinese
traditional lettering along the hoist, was replaced ca. 2006 by a new one
consisting of a white cloth featuring the new football association’s emblem. In
addition to that -I repeat- FIFA uses a blue flag to identify the Chinese Taipei
Football Association.
Juan Manuel Gabino Villascán, 07 March 2014
The yellow one is true (for association, up to
2006). The white one with a bird logo is true, too (for association, since
2006).
But the white one with a taijitu, national emblem and national flower is not
true or not an official flag. It perhaps a version with misunderstanding because
the host of the competition didn't have enough information.
Chinese Taipei football team always (or usually) use Chinese Taipei Olympic flag
in every event.

It is a bit of a problem, unless we can find a recent photograph: the extra
lines we show along the division of black and white is no longer drawn in any of
the emblems, but that's about all they agree on. There are version with the
soccer symbol larger (Didn't we use to have one of those?), the parts are
straight above each other, or tilted, the white can be left or right. Everyone
seems to have their own ideas about this emblem. (Does that make it a bad symbol
because people can' recall what it looks like, or a good emblem because people
give their own twist to it?) A quick search has not yielded any actual flags,
though. Is there an event where the flag must be visible?
Peter Hans van den Muijzenberg, 12 April 2012
The flag of the Chinese Taipei national football team replaces the Olympic
rings with the taijitu (the yin and yang symbol), with the black and white
footballs. Its former version had yellow background, but now it has been white
field since 2006.
Zoltan Horvath, 02 March 2014
The flag of the Chinese Taipei national
football team" never exist. I have no idea where this image come from. I have
never see this flag. Chinese Taipei football team always use
Chinese Taipei Olympic flag in every competition. This flag is very strange. Chinese Taipei Football Association
or team never use this flag. I have never see this flag, too. I think this flag
is wrong. Chinese Taipei football team always use Chinese
Taipei Olympic flag in every event.

All Olympic flags.

There is never a "white background" flag with the taijitu and the national
emblem & flower.
Akira Oyo, 07 March 2014
This is the flag that the last two contributors tells us doesn't exist, and
apparently Peace Eye
2000 over in Korea doesn't agree with them, just like
http://punjapit.wordpress.com/2010/06/22/taiwans-world-cup-fans-unfazed-by-lack-of-representation/.
It's unfortunately that no source is given for Zoltan's contribution, as it's
his source that should show there's solid evidence for more than three flag
drawing on the Internet.
Peter Hans van den Muijzenberg, 04 May 2014
In the last FIFA
congress, a blue flag
with the former emblem was hoisted, see
here,
here and
here.
Juan Manuel Gabino Villascán, 03 March 2014
I created Taiwanese flag
with blue background as it is used during the FIFA congress. It seems that
football size is bigger than it was used on previous emblem.

The text is 中華木蘭足球隊. "Chinese (Taipei) Mulan Football Team".
"Mulan" (木蘭) is an alternative name of Chinese Taipei Women's Football Team.

Previously reported version:

The flag should show not only in traditional Chinese but also "the name of the
team," for example "Chinese Taipei Women Soccer Team," not "the name of the
association"- Chinese Taipei Soccer Association.
