Working in Taiwan
Foreign students who have studied in school for two semesters or a language programmer for one year, with an excellent scholastic record, can work in Taiwan when one of the following circumstances applies:
Events of a serious nature have affected their financial ability to support themselves or continue their education, and the student can provide evidence of such circumstances.
An academic research institution at the student's school requires a foreign student to provide assistance in its work.
The student needs to take part in an off-campus internship related to his or her field of study.
For foreign students with proficiency in a special language, the Ministry of Education may, on a case-by-case basis, give its approval for such students, following their enrollment, to take employment as instructors at language institutes affiliated with universities, colleges, or junior colleges, or at language institutes affiliated with foreign cultural and educational organizations in Taiwan.
Application for a work permit
Foreign students who want to work in Taiwan must hold a valid work permit. With the exception of summer and winter vacations, students with work permit may work a maximum of 16 hours per week while the work permit is valid. The maximum duration of a work permit for foreign students, overseas Chinese students, and ethnic Chinese students is 6 months. A new work permit shall be applied after expiration.
Students can apply for work permits at the Council of Labor Affairs, or each schoolˇ¦s office of students can apply collectively for work permits at the Council of Labor Affairs by mail. Application forms can be downloaded from the BEVT. The standard process usually takes 5 working days to issue a work permit. For other questions concerning work permit, please visit the BEVT website.
