     Consular district of TECO Atlanta

Following the signing of the Joint Communiqué on the Establishment of Diplomatic Relations between the United States and the People's Republic of China which resulted in the United States terminating diplomatic relations with the Republic of China, the consulate of the Republic of China in Atlanta was closed on 28 February 1979. On 1 March 1979, the Coordination Council for North American Affairs of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of China established the Atlanta Office of the Coordination Council for North American Affairs. On 10 October 1994, it was renamed the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Atlanta.[5][6]

Since July 2020, the office is headed by a director-general, currently Elliot Yi-lung Wang, who previously served in representative offices in Brussels and Washington, D.C.[7]
