Vice Premier of the Republic of China
# Vice Premier of the Republic of China

The Vice Premier of the Republic of China (Chinese: 行政院副院長; pinyin: Xíngzhèng Yuàn Fù Yuànzhǎng; lit. 'Vice President of the Executive Yuan') serves as the deputy to the premier and is appointed by the president, on the recommendation of the Premier. The title of vice premier had been changed several times, so this list is divided into several sections. This includes both vice premiers of the Republic of China before 1949, when the seat of government was in Mainland China, and vice premiers since 1949, when the seat of government was relocated to Taiwan.
