About Taipei
Taipei punches well above its weight. The MRT is excellent, internet speeds are world-class (300+ Mbps fibre from NTD 600/month), and the food scene — night markets, beef noodle soup, Din Tai Fung — is extraordinary. The Gold Card visa provides a 1–3 year open work permit plus tax incentives for those earning above $66,000/year. Monthly costs of $1,500–2,000 deliver a quality of life that matches cities costing twice as much. Very safe, extremely English-friendly in professional contexts.
