Are items sold in the USA still marked Made in Taiwan? this pertains to a doll house miniature?

Label has the symbol t S interwoven into one as well as saying Made in Taiwan and I am trying to check on the vintage.

While most things imported are made in China now, I don’t know if you’ll be able to find out it’s age just going by it being made in Taiwan, I’m guessing that things are still being imported from there. Doll House miniatures became a big thing in the late 70′s – early 80′s, but I don’t think the things made then have any more value than the things made now. Most of the doll house items made in the 60′s and earlier were made for children’s doll houses and some go pretty high, especially those made by Renwal. Most things made in the 1960′s and earlier would be marked Japan.

I just searched for Taiwan in the dollhouse miniature catagory of ebay and I saw that Hello Dolly stuff was made there… I remember that from the 80′s, you can do a search and see if you find your item listed.
