Incentives

To spur innovation, entrepreneurship, and investment, the Taipei City Government has enacted the Taipei City Industrial Development Self-Government Ordinance, which offers enhanced incentives—grants and tax relief—tailored to different industries to support sustainable growth and profitability. Eligible subsidies include vocational training expenses, employee compensation, financing interest, real estate/facility rent, and house tax and land value tax. In addition, stage-based innovation programs—covering R&D, branding, incubation, and entrepreneurship—are available. Any company or business registered in Taipei that meets the eligibility criteria may apply.
