For the gold card, do you not need to be employed by a local company? If not, that's a pretty good deal.

If you apply via salary, you need to be employed by any company. Freelancing income doesn't count. You need to justify it with employment letter, and tax return.

The other way is to qualify for any of their "talent" needs. Blockchain, VR, IA, and have proof it it (publication, work, projects). They have 8 categories of people that can qualify: https://foreigntalentact.ndc.gov.tw/en/cp.aspx?n=128B875DE9C...

Great, just reading up on it. I also have permanent residency in HK, so might be able to do it via that route as well.

Just keeping my options open at the moment.
