Moving to Taiwan | Emigrating to Taiwan
Moving to Taiwan: Taiwan is an East Asian country, which is now one of the most popular destinations for expats worldwide. This is not surprising, considering the many positive aspects of the country, such as: excellent career opportunities, intriguing nature, beautiful landscapes, excellent food, impressive culture and relatively moderate prices. The reasonable living costs, though not extremely low, still represents a welcome price reduction in contrast to Central European countries, especially Switzerland.
Taiwan is an up-and-coming country where you can experience modern living conditions at an extremely good price / performance ratio, which is why a large number of expats around the planet decide to relocate to Taiwan each year.

Although the cost of living for expatriates in Taiwan is not very low, it is relatively modest, especially in comparison to Switzerland. Generally speaking, the prices of most goods are excellent value for money, which is an important concern for many expats when deciding to move to Taiwan.
The country simply offers an excellent combination of great quality of life at a moderate cost, which is why you will find almost all the amenities that you are used to from Central and Western Europe, but for lower prices.
Working in Taiwan
Expats looking to work in Taiwan are finding excellent opportunities in this East Asian country, as the emerging country offers a variety of career options in many different sectors. For example, there are countless opportunities for English teachers to find a suitable job, but also for people who work in the financial sector or in the construction industry.
In general, Taiwan offers expats ample opportunities for professional development, which is why the country is of particular interest to people who would like to gain some professional experience abroad.
Taiwan also makes it relatively easy for expats to get a residence permit as well as a work permit, which is why the country is one of the most popular countries for expats from all over the world.

Property
Real estate prices are generally more moderate in Taiwan than is the case in most countries in Central and Western Europe, and this is true for renting properties also. So it is relatively likely that you will find a suitable home with European standards, for a price that you are happy with. You will most likely also be able to afford property in the centre of Taipei.
Cities, which are particularly popular with expats, are the capital Taipei, Taichung, Kaohsiung or Tainan.
Linguistic proficiency
Although English is a language that many Taiwanese people speak, at least to a basic level, it is still important to learn the official language, Mandarin. Having only limited knowledge of Mandarin in Taiwan is not sufficient in the long term, especially when immersing in the culture, communicating with the Chinese residents of the country and participating in everyday life.
Thus, expats who decide to move to Taiwan should definitely have at least moderate language skills in Mandarin, which greatly facilitates optimal integration into society.
