Taiwan Tax Basics

Framework

IRON LAW: Three Taxes Every Taiwan Business Must Know

1. 營業稅 (Business Tax / VAT): 5% on sales, filed bimonthly
2. 營利事業所得稅 (Corporate Income Tax): 20% on profit, filed annually
3. 扣繳 (Withholding Tax): Withheld at source on payments to individuals/foreigners

Missing any filing deadline triggers penalties. Set up calendar reminders
for ALL filing dates at company registration.
