Map - Fujian Province, Republic of China (Fukien)

Fuchien Province, also romanized as Fujian and rendered as Fukien, is a nominal province of the Republic of China (ROC, Taiwan) without formal administrative function. It includes three small archipelagos off the coast of the Fujian Province of the People's Republic of China, namely the Matsu Islands, which make up Lienchiang County, and the Wuqiu Islands and Kinmen Islands, which make up Kinmen County. The seat of the provincial government is Jincheng Township of Kinmen County serves as its de facto capital.

The current Fuchien Province of the ROC, also known as the Golden Horse (after the literal reading of the Chinese character abbreviation for "Kinmen-Matsu"), which comprise 0.5% of the current ROC's territories. The province was once part of the historical Fuchien Province based on Chinese mainland, encompassing both of mainland and island portions. The Chinese Civil War resulted in the effective partition of ROC's Fuchien in 1949, the mainland portion has since been under the People's Republic of China's rule, while the offshore islands remained under ROC control, notwithstanding that both governments have not constitutionally recognized the resulting partition. During the Cold War period, Fujian was under the military administration and travel restrictions from Taiwan island which would remain in effect until 1992.

Following constitutional reforms launched in 1996, the ROC authorities decided to downsize the provincial structure to solve the problem of overlapping personnel and administrative resources between the provincial and central governments, and cut excessive public spending. The provinces were streamlined and ceased to be self-governing bodies in December 1998, with their administrative functions transferred to the Executive Yuan's subsidiary National Development Council, as well as second-tier local governments such as counties. The Kinmen-Matsu Joint Services Center was founded in 2017 and all provincial governmental organs were de facto formally abolished by July 2018, with the remaining functions transferred to the ministries of the Executive Yuan and the NDC.
