How to get permanent residence in Taiwan without getting married
This week I got Taiwanese permanent residence (the APRC) 🇹🇼 .
.
Finally! It was a tough tough grind. 🎉
.
This means I can come in and out of Taiwan, stay as long as I want and do any type of work without requiring a visa.Â
.
So how do you get it? (Without getting married to a local girl).
..
1. Work here for 5 years uninterrupted and then in the final year make double the national minimum wage (the route I took).
.
2. Get a Master’s Degree or PHD here and then work for three years (making double minimum wage).
.
Studying here is extremely cheap by the way and you’re permitted to work up to 20 hours a week. 🤔
.
3. Work here on the Gold Card Visa (entrepreneur visa) for three years.
.
Things to note:
- You need to work uninterrupted without taking a break.
- Your time on a student visa doesn’t count.
- You need a clear criminal record.
- Your work needs to be above board, legal and taxed.
.
If you have any questions, you can contact me here on IG or the private FB group.
.
Keep pushing the ultimate version of yourself,
