For remote work in Taiwan, you can apply for a Visitor Visa for “conducting international exchanges and business activities” or a Resident Visa for “engaging in investment or employment”. Your unique situation and the planned length of your stay will determine the sort of visa you require.

As long as you have a reliable internet connection, you can work remotely from anywhere in Taiwan once you get a visa. In large cities like Taipei and Kaohsiung, there are several co-working places and cafes offering free Wi-Fi.

In order to guarantee that you are in compliance with all applicable tax laws and regulations, both in Taiwan and in your home country, if you intend to work remotely for a firm situated outside of Taiwan, you may need to speak with a tax expert.
