Official wording
(f) hold an ordinary passport issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Taiwan that includes the personal identification number of the individual.
Aevamo’s reading
IRPR Part 2 Division 1, s.7(1), creates the temporary resident visa obligation and s.7.1(1) creates the eTA obligation that this regime answers; s.190 and Schedule 1.1 (separately fetched pages of the same regulation) grant the exemptions from that obligation. It is the instrument that imposes the requirement, not a description of it.
s.190(2)(f) exempts a holder of an ordinary Taiwan passport that includes the holder's personal identification number; as a visa-exempt air traveller s.7.1(1) then requires an eTA.

What this answer covers Limits & assumptions
Work and residence rights are separate from this check. This is the entry rule and the length of stay the instrument grants. It is not a decision about you: the officer at the border decides admission, and we do not evaluate the purpose of your trip, your passport's remaining validity, an onward ticket, funds, insurance or health requirements.
