Seven-Year Requirement for Permanent Residency Lowered to Five Years

Beginning this month, foreigners wishing to apply for Alien Permanent Residence Certificates (APRCs) will need to prove they have had at least five years of continuous legal residence in Taiwan, rather than the previously required seven years. The amendment to the Immigration Act shortening the legal and continuous residency requirement to five years was announced on December 26, 2007, and came into force on August 1 this year. APRC applicants must still be physically present in Taiwan at least 183 days per year for the five years, with no interruptions in their alien resident certificate status.
