As per the regulations stated in the Income Tax Act, it is not possible to utilize a credit for income taxes paid in your home country when calculating your income tax liability in Taiwan. However, the eligibility to claim a tax credit in your home country for income taxes paid in Taiwan depends on the tax laws of your native country. It is advisable to consult with the tax authorities in your home country to obtain specific information. If you are eligible to claim a tax credit, you can request a tax statement from the appropriate branch office of the Taipei National Tax Administration.
When earning income in Taiwan, foreign taxpayers are subject to taxation in accordance with the Income Tax Act. Depending on the duration of their stay in Taiwan, they are categorized as either "nonresidents" or "residents" and are required to file income tax returns accordingly.
For "nonresidents": If the stay in Taiwan is 90 days or fewer within a taxable year (January 1 to December 31),the income is subject to withholding according to the applicable withholding rate. In such cases, filing an income tax return is not necessary.
If the stay in Taiwan exceeds 90 days but is less than 183 days within a taxable year, the income tax is calculated based on the relevant withholding rate and must be declared accordingly。
For "residents": If the stay in Taiwan is more than 183 days within a taxable year, the income tax is declared and assessed using a progressive rate (refer to Article 15). The tax liability is determined based on the taxable income, which is the annual gross income minus exemptions, deductions, and basic living expenses.
The tax payment due date differs for foreign workers and depends on how long you’ve stayed in Taiwan. Refer to the website for more information.
