Foreign Faculty Members Who Leave Taiwan Early

This is a reminder to foreign faculty about tax rates, especially for those staying in Taiwan 183 days or less in a given tax year.

If you file tax as a foreigner and plan to resign from MCU in the tax year (2023), please inform the Controller’s Division prior to June 5, 2023 and pay the difference to make up the 18% tax rate (20% or non-salary income) for your final tax year in Taiwan, if that applies. Additionally, before leaving Taiwan, please stop by the Controller’s Division to pick up your final Withholding and Non-withholding Tax Statement and proceed to the Foreign Taxpayers Section of the local Tax Administration to settle your tax account.

We appreciate your cooperation!
