Candidates are generally expected to have experience in investment advisory, research, portfolio management or private banking, along with strong knowledge of financial markets and investment products. Relevant licensing in Taiwan, such as securities or investment-trust qualifications, may be required.

Can I work in Taiwan?
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
How it works
How it works: Professional work permit: a master's degree, or a bachelor's plus 2 years' experience, and pay of at least NT$47,971 a month (about USD 1,500); the employer applies.
Before you apply: Dealing, advising and senior roles usually need a regulator's licence or approval, which checks your honesty, skills and finances. Ask if your job does.
Watch for: The Employment Gold Card has a finance field and needs no employer to apply; it is meant for senior staff.
Official source: Ministry of Labor: foreign professionals in specialised and technical jobs (page updated 18 October 2021). Checked November 2026.
