Taiwan

Aperçu économique et sectoriel

Taiwan is a high-income, export-oriented economy whose strength is anchored in the global semiconductor and electronics supply chain. The island is home to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), the world's largest contract chipmaker, which alone represents roughly 44 percent of total domestic stock-market capitalization. Exports of semiconductors, electronics, petrochemicals, and precision machinery drive sustained current-account surpluses, and Taiwan ranked as the world's 16th-largest exporter in 2024. The economy grew at a real rate of approximately 8.68 percent in 2025, driven by surging AI-related demand for advanced chips, servers, power systems, and related components. Services account for roughly 62 percent of GDP, industry around 36 percent, and agriculture under 2 percent.

Accès aux courtiers locaux

Non-resident foreign investors may trade TWSE-listed securities by first opening a securities trading account with a local broker or a foreign broker with a Taiwan sub-custodian, and registering with the Taiwan Depository and Clearing Corporation. Many international online brokers provide access to TWSE stocks, and US-listed ADRs such as TSM offer direct exposure to TSMC without requiring a local account. Foreign investors collectively held approximately 49 percent of TWSE market capitalisation as of early 2026.

Relocalisation & résidence

Accès pour les investisseurs étrangers

Foreign nationals may reside in Taiwan on an Alien Resident Certificate (ARC) tied to employment, study, or qualifying investment. Taiwan does not grant citizenship easily to foreigners; naturalisation typically requires renouncing existing citizenship, though exceptions exist for high-level professionals. The cost of living in Taipei is moderate relative to comparable East Asian financial centres, and public healthcare is available to ARC holders enrolled in the National Health Insurance system.
