What do I need to know before retiring in Taiwan?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Taiwan, they said...
"Make friends. Keep yourself busy doing what you intend to do in Taiwan. If English is your first language, you might want to teach. There's good money in teaching kids or adults in language centers called bushibans or in one on ones. Enjoy the difference in culture," said another expat in Taichung, Taiwan.
"Expats considering retiring in Taiwan should be aware that the cost of living is relatively low compared to other countries, and that the healthcare system is well-developed and accessible. It is important to research the visa requirements for retirement in Taiwan, as well as the tax implications of living and working in the country. Additionally, expats should familiarize themselves with the local culture and customs, as well as the language, to ensure a smooth transition. Finally, expats should consider the availability of leisure activities and social networks in the area they plan to retire in," wrote a member who made the move to Taiwan.
