Work Permit Eligibility

To legally work in Taiwan, you can apply for a Gold Card yourself or your prospective employer may need to apply for a work permit for you.

One of the options for the prospective employer to apply for a work permit for you is through the New Scoring Criteria, which is a method that assigns points based on your employer’s and your qualifications. Your work permit may be approved if the total points is over 70. The point system evaluation includes academic records, salary levels, work experience, job qualifications, Chinese language and other foreign language abilities, as well as growth experience.

So, you can give your job application a boost by presenting this self-evaluation form along with other relevant documents, including graduation certificates and/or diplomas, labor agreements, curriculum vitae and certificates of foreign language abilities to the company or institute that would like to hire you.

For more detailed information about this evaluation, please check out the Ministry of Labor’s website and go to the special section for Part-time Jobs while studying in Taiwan; or simply visit Talent Taiwan website. Their contact information is: (02)2380-1712 or (02)2380-1725.
