PMI corridor profile — Taiwan
Taiwan is one of the largest PMI destinations in East Asia — manufacturing, kaigo (elderly care), and domestic helpers in Taipei, Taoyuan, Taichung. The ARC (Alien Resident Certificate) is central — every return-ticket decision revolves around ARC validity, Re-Entry Permit, and employer consent via the NIA e-PLKA system. Recurring intent: annual leave, ARC renewal, end-of-contract return, family emergencies. Always check KDEI Taipei notices at kdei-taipei.org/news before visiting.
