Chinese businesswoman Alice Huang, who has been linked to Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang amid an alleged espionage controversy, could be permanently barred from entering Taiwan after authorities confirmed that she used a Hong Kong passport for repeated visits to the island.
Taiwan’s immigration authorities confirmed on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, that Alice entered using a Hong Kong travel document. The revelation has prompted fresh scrutiny of the country’s entry procedures as national security agencies investigate allegations that she had links to Chinese intelligence.
Taiwan confirms Alice Huang used a Hong Kong passport for repeated visits
National Immigration Agency Director-General Lin Horng-en confirmed that Taiwan’s authorities had records of Alice’s entries and departures. Lin confirmed that she had used a Hong Kong passport to enter Taiwan. He said, “Our government’s relevant agencies are fully informed of the relevant records and information.”
Taiwan’s Interior Minister Liu Shyh-fang also confirmed that Alice had visited the island but was currently overseas. Speaking to lawmakers, Liu said, “If we had known she was a spy, we certainly would not have let her enter Taiwan.” She added that the government would review its screening procedures, including pre-entry checks, spot inspections, interviews and measures taken after visitors leave the country.
The reported revocation means Alice could face a permanent bar from returning to the island. However, Taiwanese officials have not disclosed how many times she visited or the dates of her trips.
Why did Alice Huang use a Hong Kong passport?
The passport issue has drawn attention because Hong Kong passport holders generally face fewer entry requirements when travelling to Taiwan than mainland Chinese citizens, who must obtain special permission. The difference reflects the complicated relationship between Taiwan and China. Beijing claims Taiwan as part of its territory and has repeatedly vowed to bring the self-governed island under its control.
Taiwanese authorities said national security agencies were actively investigating Alice’s case. Officials have not publicly established that she engaged in espionage, but the allegations have prompted questions about whether existing screening procedures were sufficient.
Alice’s reported visits to Taiwan have also attracted attention because she was seen with Jensen during a high-profile gathering in Taipei. In May 2025, the Nvidia chief hosted a dinner at a Chinese restaurant during Computex, Taiwan’s major technology trade show. Journalists outside the venue filmed Jensen mingling with guests alongside a woman identified in reports as Alice, who wore a pink dress.
Footage from the event appeared to show Jensen putting his arm around her before she kissed him on the cheek. The images have resurfaced amid reports about their relationship and the wider investigation into Alice’s alleged links to Chinese intelligence. Jensen, who is not related to Alice, acknowledged his infidelity in a memo to Nvidia employees. The company’s board has since opened an independent investigation into the matter.
Jensen, Nvidia’s co-founder and chief executive, has admitted to being unfaithful to his wife, with reports identifying Alice as the woman involved. US officials reportedly suspect that Alice was recruited by China’s Ministry of State Security. Beijing has rejected the espionage allegations. But the controversy extends beyond the Nvidia CEO’s personal life.
Alice was previously a senior executive at Singapore-based data centre company Megaspeed, which has faced allegations of helping divert restricted Nvidia AI chips to China. Megaspeed has denied wrongdoing, while Nvidia has said it stopped sales and shipments to the company in June 2025.
Alice has not publicly responded to the allegations.
