Self-employed declaration

Sole trader registration and filings — Taiwan

Setting up the status takes little time; what causes trouble afterwards is the rhythm of the filings and keeping the supporting documents. An organisation put in place from the start avoids painful catch-ups in later years. On Helplease, you describe your needs and the workers offering this service in Taiwan are notified of your request.

What the service covers

• setting up and registering the status;
• understanding the filing obligations;
• preparing the periodic filings;
• organising the filing of supporting documents;
• tracking the deadlines.

Depending on the agreement, the support can include help with registration, an explanation of the obligations, help preparing the filings, setting up a filing system and a reminder of deadlines.

Key points

What the worker is not

The worker helps gather, understand and fill in: they are not a lawyer, a notary or a public official, and give no legal advice. They do not represent you, sign nothing on your behalf and do not access your accounts. Official acts are for authorised professionals, and information is always confirmed with the body concerned.

Documents and confidentiality

Your documents stay confidential: they are not copied, kept or passed on without your agreement, and working files are deleted once the process is over. Originals stay with you; hand over copies only, and only when genuinely required. Never share your passwords or codes received by message: open the necessary accounts yourself.

What affects the price

• volume of documents;
• complexity of the case;
• number of trips;
• requested deadline;
• follow-up after submission.

The rate is agreed with the worker based on these elements.

Frequently asked questions

Can the worker submit the file for me?

They can prepare and accompany; anything requiring your signature or your presence stays with you.

Are my documents safe?

Yes: copies only, nothing is kept or passed on without your agreement.

Can a deadline be guaranteed?

No: timescales depend on the body, and nobody can promise to speed a case up.

What information should I give?

The process concerned, the documents you already have, your situation and the deadlines to meet.
