Work during a tourist stay is not defined only by payment
Do not work in Taiwan without any required work permit.
Travel question: Work during a tourist stay is not defined only by payment
Authorities consider the substance of the activity; even unpaid assistance may need permission. Visa-exempt stay is not itself a work permit.
Why is this rule in place?
Foreign work uses permits based on activity, employer and duration.
What should travelers do?
Before performing, selling, helping a shop, doing local business, filming or volunteering, have the organizer and labor authority confirm requirements.
Examples & Details
Paid performance, unpaid shop help, interpreting, modeling, tips, volunteering
