Official wording
Taiwan residents holding a valid "Mainland Travel Permit for Taiwan Residents" may enter Hong Kong as a visitor and stay for up to 30 days irrespective of whether they are transitting through Hong Kong to/from the Mainland or coming to Hong Kong for visit, provided normal immigration requirements are met.
Aevamo’s reading
The Immigration Department's 'Visit Visa / Entry Permit Requirements for the HKSAR' chapter is the operative publication that imposes a visa-free period or a visa requirement on each nationality for visits and transits to Hong Kong, published by the department that administers entry control under the Immigration Ordinance (Cap. 115); it creates the visitor entitlement rather than reporting one created elsewhere.
The Immigration Department's entry-arrangements page states that Taiwan residents holding a valid Mainland Travel Permit for Taiwan Residents (Tai Bao Zheng) may enter as a visitor for up to 30 days, so a Taiwan resident holding that permit may visit without advance authorisation.

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.
