I thought all of them received some ships armed with SM-1s. Most of the European ships should be deactivated soon, but some like Taiwan still uses it.

Yes many navies have recieved surplus ships armed with SM-1 and they ALL face the same problem of block-obsolescence as the missile inventories start to time-out. That will require either: A) Replacement of the inventory, B) Refurbishment of the inventory or C) accepting that the inventory might not function when needed.
