The Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Thailand (Chinese: 駐泰國台北經濟文化辦事處; pinyin: Zhù Tàiguó Táiběi Jīngjì Wénhuà Bànshì Chù) (Thai: สำนักงานเศรษฐกิจและวัฒนธรรมไทเปประจำประเทศไทย RTGS: Samnakngan Setthakit Lae Wattanatham Taipe Pracham Prathet Thai) is the representative office of Taiwan in Thailand, which functions as a de facto embassy in the absence of diplomatic relations.

The Office has joint responsibility for Bangladesh with the Taipei Economic and Cultural Center in India in New Delhi.[5] Between 2004 and 2009, affairs with Bangladesh were handled by the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Bangladesh in Dhaka.[6]

Its counterpart body in Taiwan is the Thailand Trade and Economic Office in Taipei.[7]
