The New Taiwan dollar–euro rate is derived via the US dollar: the Central Bank of the Republic of China (Taiwan) NTD/USD interbank closing rate of 2 January 2026 (31.419) × the ECB EUR/USD rate of the same date (1.1721). The ECB does not publish a New Taiwan dollar rate, so euro amounts are approximate; the actual exchange rate may differ.

- Tax year = calendar year 2026 (income of 2026, return filed in May 2027). The 2026 amounts are already published: MOF notice of 27/11/2025 (personal exemption 101,000, standard deduction 136,000, salary special deduction 227,000, rates 5 / 12 / 20 / 30 / 40 % with brackets at 610,000 / 1,380,000 / 2,770,000 / 5,190,000 TWD).
- Taiwan resident, a national with household registration, under 70, no spouse or dependants; employee of a private employer in Taipei for the full year; salary paid in 12 equal monthly amounts with no bonuses.
- Deducted automatically: personal exemption, standard deduction (higher than itemised deductions, including labour and health insurance premiums) and the salary special deduction (capped at the salary). The rent special deduction (up to 180,000) is not included because it depends on renting.
- Basic living expense rule (Taxpayer Rights Protection Act, art. 4): the 2026 amount is not yet announced, the 2025 amount of 213,000 per person is used; it is below the personal exemption plus standard deduction (237,000), so there is no extra deduction.
- There is no local income tax in Taipei. The alternative minimum tax (所得基本稅額) does not affect a salary with no other income.
- Taiwan is not in OECD Taxing Wages. Included at the official 2026 rates: labour insurance (ordinary accidents 11.5% + employment insurance 1%; employee 20%, employer 70%, ceiling TWD 45,800/month); occupational accident insurance (employer, 0.05% industry + 0.07% commuting, IT services industry; ceiling 72,800); wage arrears fund (employer, 0.025% of the labour insurance insured salary); employer labour pension 6% (ceiling 150,000/month); national health insurance 5.17% (employee 30%, employer 60% × 1.56 for the average 0.56 dependants; ceiling 313,000/month) and the employer supplementary premium of 2.11% on salary above the insured amount. The government's 10% share and the employee's voluntary pension contribution (up to 6%) are not included.
- The insured monthly amount follows the official grade tables (salary rounded up to the next grade). Employment insurance and the labour pension are mandatory for nationals; for most foreigners without permanent residence there is no 6% pension contribution.

- Período fiscal: 2026-01-01 – 2026-12-31

- The New Taiwan dollar–euro rate is derived via the US dollar: the Central Bank of the Republic of China (Taiwan) NTD/USD interbank closing rate of 2 January 2026 (31.419) × the ECB EUR/USD rate of the same date (1.1721).
