TLDR : Answer Summary
A user is inquiring about the latest developments regarding the DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) applications in Taipei, particularly after the introduction of a new e-visa system. Comments suggest that while Taipei was previously fast in processing, applicants now need to provide additional documentation, and response times may vary significantly based on the completeness of their submissions.

Taipei told me they will give online approval within 2 days providing documentation is sufficient. Further requests can delay approval to 5-10 days. If you apply online inc 6 months of bank statements with a final balance of 500K THB and income highlighted plus matching paylsips/invoices to the deposits. Submit company registration info.

It shows these requirements can change frequently and depending on what the local Ambassador or Head Of Consular etc decide

Yeah, I hope Taiwan has posted the immigration cert needed on their site. That is going to mess a lot of people up if they are unaware

Thanks for the info. Just to make it super clear for me. Important is final balance right ? I can provide 6 months of statements with matching payment slips but I just deposited 500 k last month. If they need 500k every month for the last 6 months then Im screwed 🙃

You Will need to go to immigration and get a cert of entry and departure, Greg has posted the link you must read. If you not in Taipei, Vietnam or Jakarta are easier to get approved

You are ok with a final balance of 500K, it is not needed for every month in Taipei. I only had a final balance of 500K but had 6 months of statements. That is great you have matching pay slips as they are a strict on matching income with bank deposits.

It appears that Taipei is requesting additional documents.... suggest you pass on Taipei
