  • Taiwan Has Seen Stable and Sustainable Economic Growth
    Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide Over the past few years, Taiwan has seen stable and sustainable economic growth. Growth momentum is expected to continue as a result of the improved relationship with Mainland China. Taiwan is a developed market with a population of more than 23 million and a with GDP per capita of US$24,827 (as of 2018). In addition, retail turnover (of department stores, supermarkets or convenience stores and retail formats) has also increased and thus created more demand for retail property. With a mere three hours (on average) flying time to seven major cities in the Western Pacific, Taiwan is the hub of the Asia-Pacific Region. The island is close to the global economic powerhouse, China, both geographically and culturally, and is dubbed the gateway to China. The number of inbound visitors to Taiwan reached 11.1 million in 2018, which increased by 3.05% y-o-y. Chinese visitors account for the highest proportion of visitors in Taiwan, though numbers of visitors decreased by 1.35% y-o-y due to political factors. Japanese visitors increased to 1.97 million and showed a growth rate of 3.70% y-o-y. Given the visa-free entry and landing visa privilege, Taiwan is an ideal travel destination for many different nationalities, such as USA, UK, Far East nations and several European countries. Tourism receipts in Taiwan in 2017 totalled US$12.3billion. The consumption ability of these tourists generates retail market development. These developments have the potential to help bolster retail TAIWAN sales – particularly for retailers of high-end or aspirational brands to which visitors are likely to be attracted.

In Ximen, there are 14 related stores within the 200 metres walking distance from Exit 6 of MRT Ximen Station. Recently, many department stores have remodelled the usage of the first floor, from cosmetics counters to pop-up stores, to bring interactive experiences and to draw in customers. Moreover, more and more restaurants locate in department stores to satisfy the increasing demand of customers. The number of inbound visitors to Taiwan has risen in recent years. Over 90% of visitors to Taiwan stay in Taipei city.

  • Withholding Income
    Preface Taiwan has undergone rapid economic growth for more than five decades. Efforts on the part of enterprises and the government continue to sharpen Taiwan’s competitive edge, which is characterized by an extensive manufacturing base, strong research and development capabilities, a high quality human resource base, and an efficient infrastructure that includes sophisticated telecommunications capacity. The implementation of a policy that focuses on economic growth and major reforms has resulted in a more business-friendly investment climate, liberal monetary measures, and a freer market economy. In competitiveness assessments done by prominent international economic institutions, Taiwan ranks high in favorable investment climate and in competitiveness. According to the 2003-2004 Global Competitiveness Report by the WEF (World Economic Forum), Taiwan ranked fifth in growth competitiveness on a global basis and first in Asia, and sixteenth in business competitiveness. In April 2004, BERI (Business Environment Risk Intelligence) of Switzerland rated Taiwan as the fifth best investment climate in the world and third in Asia, and second in a positive government attitude towards foreign investments. The ROC government looks forward to assisting multinational companies in establishing Taiwan operations as gateway to the Asian Pacific market by utilizing the island’s favorable investment environment and competitiveness, its extensive manufacturing base, and its complete supply chains. To that end, the Industrial Development & Investment Center of the Ministry of Economic Affairs commissioned Deloitte Taiwan to compile this “Cost of Investing in Taiwan” handbook. One objective of the handbook is to help with feasibility studies by foreign investors. It contains information on taxation, investment incentives, and rents at major industrial and office sites; and cost information relating to human resources, water and electricity, and communications.
