No, they do not.

Their de facto stance is that the Taiwanese government is sovereign over the island, but they formally accept that the PRC is the government of China.

It's a careful line between ensuring the continued de facto independence of their key ally, without inducing the inevitable temper tantrum from China of formally treating them as independent.
