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 (2018), please inform the Controller's Division ten days ahead and pay the difference to make up the 18% tax rate 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 last 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!
