For standard company investments, the Department of Investment Review, or DIR, reviews the application before capital remittance and investment-amount verification.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The governing legislation defines foreign investment to include holding shares or capital contributions in a Taiwan company,&nbsp;establishing&nbsp;certain business&nbsp;structures&nbsp;and providing a loan of at least one year to an invested enterprise. Restricted-sector investments may also require permission or consent from the authority responsible for that industry.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The authority formerly referred to in some materials as the Investment Commission is now the&nbsp;<strong>Department of Investment Review, Ministry of Economic Affairs<\/strong>.

For\u00a0an initial\u00a0investment in a new enterprise, the current DIR checklist\u00a0generally identifies\u00a0the following:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The applicable investment application form, commonly Form A.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Investor identification documents and Chinese translations.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The power of attorney and its Chinese translation where an agent is\u00a0required.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Identification and certification documents for the appointed agent.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Evidence of the approved reservation of the company name and business scope.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Declaration of Foreign Investor\u00a0Qualification where\u00a0applicable to the foreign juridical-person investor.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Documents supporting the particular investment method or other case-specific matters requested during review.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:500\">Investment Application Form\u00a0\u00a0<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The form records information about the investor, proposed Taiwan enterprise, investment amount, ownership structure, method of investment and other details&nbsp;required&nbsp;for the&nbsp;particular application. The information must be consistent with the company-registration&nbsp;documents, remittance&nbsp;instructions&nbsp;and supporting evidence.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The current standard checklist does&nbsp;<strong>not<\/strong>&nbsp;prescribe a universal three-year business expansion plan, employee&nbsp;plan&nbsp;and financial forecast for every&nbsp;new-company&nbsp;filing. Detailed operating,&nbsp;financing&nbsp;or investment plans may nevertheless be&nbsp;required&nbsp;for critical or substantial proposals, long-term loan investments, regulated&nbsp;activities&nbsp;or other case-specific reviews.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:500\">Proof of Identity for Foreign Investors<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An individual investor may\u00a0generally submit\u00a0a valid passport copy or other accepted nationality documentation. A foreign corporate investor should provide its corporate identification or registration evidence and the required Chinese translation. Information concerning key controllers or ultimate beneficial owners may also be\u00a0required, particularly when the ownership chain is complex.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:500\">Taiwan Company Name and Business Scope Reservation\u00a0<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The investor should reserve the proposed Chinese company name and business scope before\u00a0submitting\u00a0the standard new-company investment application. The reservation information and reference number should correspond with the activities\u00a0stated\u00a0in the investment filing.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-power-of-attorney-for-investment-agent\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:500\">Power of Attorney for Investment Agent<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A power of attorney is&nbsp;required&nbsp;where the investor appoints an agent and falls within the relevant document category. It should clearly identify the investor and agent and specify the&nbsp;authorised&nbsp;matters. It is not limited to&nbsp;particular company&nbsp;types, and the current rules do not support a blanket statement that every power of attorney must be&nbsp;legalised&nbsp;only by a Taiwan overseas mission. The applicable standard verification procedure should be followed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A natural-person investor holding a Taiwan Alien Resident Certificate, or a foreign juridical person with a registered Taiwan branch, may&nbsp;submit&nbsp;certain applications without an appointed agent and therefore without a power of attorney, subject to the supporting-document requirements.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-foreign-investment-qualification-declaration\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:500\">Language and Submission Format\u00a0<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Foreign-language identification,&nbsp;authorisation&nbsp;and supporting documents&nbsp;generally require&nbsp;Chinese translations as specified in the checklist. This does not mean every original document must first be issued in Chinese.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Applications are not restricted to postal filing. Current DIR guidance accommodates online procedures and digital copies. Original documents are no longer routinely&nbsp;required&nbsp;for online applications, although the reviewing authority may request them when necessary. Paper applications&nbsp;remain&nbsp;available for relevant cases.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/premiatnc.channel.io\/\" style=\"background-color:#11384f\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Contact Us for Company Incorporation in Taiwan<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:25px\">How Long Does Foreign Investment Approval Take?\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A fixed two-to-four-week period should not be presented as guaranteed.&nbsp;Article 8 of the Statute for Investment by Foreign Nationals states that the authority should&nbsp;decide&nbsp;an application within one month after the application procedures are complete. Where the case involves the authority of another industry regulator, the stated period is two months.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These periods begin after the required procedures and documents are complete. The practical timeline can be longer where the authority requests supplementary&nbsp;information,&nbsp;the ownership chain requires clarification, the investment falls within a restricted or sensitive sector, or another regulator must&nbsp;participate. Investors should therefore build time for questions and document supplementation into the incorporation schedule.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:25px\">Restricted Industries and Sector-Specific Approval\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Taiwan applies a negative-list approach to most non-PRC foreign investment.&nbsp;InvestTaiwan&nbsp;reports that&nbsp;nearly 95%&nbsp;of foreign investment has been deregulated, with conditional restrictions&nbsp;remaining&nbsp;in limited areas.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Investment may be prohibited where it would adversely affect national security, public order, public&nbsp;morals&nbsp;or public health, or where legislation otherwise prohibits the activity.&nbsp;Investments in legally restricted sectors require permission or consent from the competent industry authority.&nbsp;Depending on the business, the investor may also&nbsp;encounter&nbsp;foreign-equity limits, licensing&nbsp;conditions&nbsp;or operational requirements.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The negative list and sector regulations should be checked against the company\u2019s proposed registered activities rather than only its general commercial description.

A transparent structure supported by consistent corporate records, ownership&nbsp;charts&nbsp;and remittance documents can reduce avoidable questions. The current guidance should not, however, be interpreted as requiring identical source-of-funds&nbsp;evidence in every case.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For an investment made in New Taiwan dollars, the current DIR guidance states that proof of the domestic NTD source is&nbsp;generally no longer&nbsp;required&nbsp;unless it is requested during the review.

The authority may also coordinate with an industry regulator where the proposed activities require special permission.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-how-can-premia-tnc-help-you\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:25px\">Mainland China,\u00a0Hong Kong\u00a0and Macau Connections\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mainland Chinese investors are governed by a separate investment-permit framework. A company incorporated in a third&nbsp;jurisdiction&nbsp;can still be classified as Mainland-funded where Mainland Chinese persons or entities directly or indirectly hold more than 30% of its shares or capital, or exercise control over it.

Current DIR guidance expressly requests Chinese translations for documents such as investor identification and powers of attorney, but the underlying foreign document does not always need to have been originally issued in Chinese. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Q2: Can an investor pay for expedited approval?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>A: The cited official investment procedures do not identify a paid fast-track channel for an ordinary foreign investment application. The most practical way to avoid preventable delay is to submit complete and internally consistent documents and respond promptly to requests for supplementary information. The statutory review periods apply after the application procedures are complete. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Q3: Can investment capital be provided in New Taiwan dollars?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>A: Yes, an approved investment may involve New Taiwan dollars where the proposed funding method is permitted and properly stated in the application. Under the current DIR document guidance, investors are generally no longer required to provide proof of the domestic NTD source unless the reviewing authority requests it. The investor should still retain evidence supporting the source, ownership and movement of the funds. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Q4: Does a foreign company establishing a Taiwan branch follow the same process as a subsidiary?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>A: Not necessarily. Current InvestTaiwan guidance directs an ordinary foreign company to apply for foreign-company recognition and branch establishment through the company-registration authority. It should not be assumed that the subsidiary FIA and investment-amount verification sequence applies unchanged. Where Mainland Chinese persons or entities directly or indirectly hold more than 30% of the foreign company or exercise control, prior DIR investment permission is required before branch registration. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Q5: Can capital be remitted before the foreign investment application is approved?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>A: For a standard foreign-invested subsidiary, the official process places DIR approval before opening the preparatory account, remitting the approved investment capital and applying for investment-amount verification. Investors should therefore obtain the required approval and confirm the banking instructions before treating a remittance as registered investment capital. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/api.whatsapp.com\/send\/?phone=85256281754&amp;text&amp;app_absent=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"148\" src=\"https:\/\/premiatnc.com\/tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/BTN-4-1024x148.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-89357\" srcset=\"https:\/\/premiatnc.com\/tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/BTN-4-1024x148.png 1024w, https:\/\/premiatnc.com\/tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/BTN-4-300x43.png 300w, https:\/\/premiatnc.com\/tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/BTN-4-768x111.png 768w, https:\/\/premiatnc.com\/tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/BTN-4-1536x222.png 1536w, https:\/\/premiatnc.com\/tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/BTN-4.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\"><\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> 8<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">minutes<\/span><\/span>Taiwan&#8217;s investment approval is an important policy aimed at ensuring the stable growth of Taiwan&#8217;s economy and safeguarding national interests.

To promote the inflow of foreign capital, the Taiwanese government has carried out a series of reforms and improvements to its investment approval policies, lowering investment thresholds and improving approval efficiency.
