So May is a tax season, so we have to file our tax.

So for today's vlog, I will tell you the things that you need to know and to do when you file your tax here in Taiwan.

When should I file taxes?

You need to file your tax between May 1st to May 31st.

But for this year, since it's still pandemic here in Taiwan, the deadline or due date for the filing of tax refund was extended to June 30 yet.

Also, if you are planning to leave Taiwan for this year, so you have to file your tax refund 10 days before you leave the country.

When are Taiwan tax payments due?

Tax payments are due by May 31st, but due to the pandemic, so it has been extended to

June 30 yet.

And there will be penalties for late payment.

What makes me eligible for making Taiwan taxes?

Or what makes me a tax resident?

As a foreigner here in Taiwan, you become a tax resident if you live or stay here in

Taiwan for at least 183 days in a year.

Let's say you have only resided or stayed here in Taiwan for less than 183 days.

You can still file your tax, but you cannot get any tax refunds since you are not considered a tax resident for that year that you haven't reached the number or the minimum number of residents here in Taiwan.

How do I count the days I stayed in Taiwan?

So you can count the days from the start of the date of the stamp on your passport.

So let's say today you came here in Taiwan.

So that is the first day, I think, of your first day as a resident here in Taiwan.

I have already filed my tax refund last two weeks ago.

So let's watch this.

All right.

So I am currently now in front of the tax bureau.

So I'll be filing my tax for 2021 and I only rode a bicycle, yes, the Uber, I mean the

I'll call this one the U-Bike, okay, from my school.

So it took me only less than 10 minutes.

So let's see how much I can have for 2021 because last time I got, I think, more than 22,000.

Let's find out if I can still get more than 20,000.

Okay.

See you later.

So I'm, I'm done filing with my tax refund.

So I got more than 20,000 for the, for year 2021, for last year.

So if you are going to file your tax, so remember to bring your ARC, your health card, and then your bank book or bank account.

So they need your bank account so that they can send it to you or deposit your refund to your account directly.

And then, so that's it.

So I hope you can get also more than 20,000 next time when you file your tax refund.
