Living Costs and Financial Tips for Expats in Taiwan
For expats living in Taiwan, typical monthly living costs can range from TWD 40,000 to TWD 60,000 depending on lifestyle choices. This cost usually covers rent, groceries, utility bills, and leisure activities. While it can be reasonable to spend less if you embrace local food and transport, living in more upscale neighborhoods can significantly increase expenses.
When navigating finances, it's crucial to have a local bank account for efficient transactions. Credit and debit cards are widely accepted, but always carry cash for smaller vendors. As for transferring money internationally, services like Wise and OFX typically offer better exchange rates and lower fees than traditional banks, making them a smart choice for sending or receiving funds. However, for day-to-day expenses, it's advisable to exchange money locally to avoid unfavorable rates and fees often charged by exchange bureaus in tourist areas.
