Dividend remittance for foreign-invested companies in Taiwan is often less a simple fund transfer and more a documentation-driven compliance review. Banks assess corporate approvals, financial eligibility, and tax status to ensure every distribution is fully supported and internally consistent. Delays typically arise not from non-compliance, but from gaps in timing, coordination, or supporting records across finance, tax, and governance functions.
Foreign companies in Taiwan often face challenges with tax compliance, including withholding tax on services, employee taxation, management fees, transfer pricing, and profit remittance. Proper documentation, clear contracts, and accurate financial records are essential to meet Taiwan’s corporate tax and regulatory requirements.
