Taiwan

Our company in Taiwan operates from Taipei, Taiwan.

Taiwan is one of Asia’s wealthiest economies and has attracted major players globally. However, most organisations venturing into Taiwan face roadblocks that often make the processes we take for granted elsewhere a challenge here. Basic necessities like employment of a foreigner, administering of payroll, paying taxes are not that straightforward.

Immigration Services

Immigration laws in most countries in Asia Pac often hold a local entity responsible for the entry, wellbeing, good behaviour and eventual exit of the individual. This also ensures that local immigration and employment laws are adhered to. This host company will be the technical employer of the individual.

We assist with the sponsorship of a business visa. Please speak to your Innovare sales contact person who will determine the appropriate visa for you or your consultant.
