Issued at Taipei, Taiwan today.

Submit docs (in person) at 9AM

and get visa 4PM same day.
Answer summary
A user reported the successful same-day processing of a visa at the Taipei office, where they submitted documents in person at 9 AM and received their visa by 4 PM on the same day. Questions arose about the need for an appointment, which was not necessary as walk-ins were accepted between 9:00 and 11:30 AM. Several comments expressed surprise and asked for additional details about the type of visa being issued and whether it was applicable to non-Taiwanese passport holders.

@Ron *******
according to others’ post, notarized documents are not required in Taipei

I wonder if it's a good idea to get my company articles of formation notorized here just to look more official?

I might be able to get a Thai lawyer or Thai notary or Appostille to authentic?

@Ron *******
a letter of employment should be the best

But IMO print out the Portfolio and give the officers as well

They probably approve Taiwanese citizens fairly easily. Taiwanese are second to Japanese in desirable foreigners.

My profile: 35 yo taiwan citizen, with a lot of tourist visas and language school ed visas in my current passport. Working as an online tutor.

1. Bank statement: I provided recent monthly statement (only 1 month) of HSBC Taiwan (in mandarin)

2. Certificate of employment: made by GPT, listed with my name/company name/start my job from/ work descriptions (especially mentioned that I can work in fully remote mode)

Must be in English. Must be with company’s official seal stamp and the wet signature from company’s top head(responsible person)

And you have to provide the copy of your company’s official registration from your country, with stamp and wet signature, too.

3. I even voluntarily provided supplementary docs such as 5-year tax report with my taxable earning from this company and another brokerage account with sufficient USD balance well over
*****
USD within the last 6 months.

The staff asked me some details like: do you teach thai students? (Of course not). Seems that they really care whether you are earning high enough to support yourself and you are not going to take Thai people’s jobs.

Wish you good luck!

Thanks for letting us know about your experience in Taipei. I am planning to apply tomorrow, but I am wondering How did you get a wet signature for the company's official registrations? It's all electronic where I live.

thanks for the detailed write up. Do you happen to know if they would accept the certificate and registration docs without an official seal if it was notarized by the embassy of that country?

I’m not sure. You can try to send them an email. Very responsive ( but don’t call - that was a bad experience - the staff in call didn’t know anything and even hung up of my call in midway.
