Housing & Renting in Taiwan
I'm renting — can I get help, and what if my landlord won't cooperate?
Renting in Taiwan as a foreigner comes down to two questions: what financial help you can get, and what to do when a landlord blocks you. The rent subsidy is open to most renters including ARC holders; social housing requires a Taiwanese-national applicant. And by law a landlord cannot stop you from claiming the rent subsidy. This guide routes you to the right one and the help lines.
Panduan langkah demi langkah
- 1
Want the rent subsidy? Most renters with an ARC can apply, and new immigrants get a bonus — check the official eligibility checker.
- 2
Looking at social housing? The main applicant must be a Taiwanese national; a foreign spouse applies through their Taiwanese partner.
- 3
Landlord refusing to let you claim, or threatening to raise the rent for it? That is often illegal — call the 1950 consumer hotline.
- 4
Not sure where you stand? Call 1990 (24h, Chinese/English/Japanese) to be pointed to the right office.
