It's "political" in the sense that it involves politics. I think you mean to say that it isn't "controversial" outside of China, but I would still disagree. A lot of countries are more influenced by China than Americans and Western Europeans, and are reluctant to use the name Taiwan or imply they are an independent nation.
Yeah, then their border patrol happily accepts the Taiwanese passport.
