Insurance
Taipei’s eligibility paragraph says insurance is obligatory after arrival, but its appointment checklist requests Schengen insurance. Confirm evidence at filing and prepare full-stay cover.

Documents and participation
Online preparation does not initiate the application; attend personally with printed forms, originals, photo and biometrics.

Step 2
Apply through the official route
- Call Taipei to confirm eligibility, payment and the conflicting entry-visa and insurance instructions.
- Prepare online through Konzinfo Start if using it, print the form and appendix, and collect household, funds and accommodation evidence.
- Book personal filing, original-document checks and biometrics. Confirm payment by telephone before paying.
- After approval, check the entry visa and confirm entry and residence-card delivery arrangements.
Step 3
Read your approval and entry conditions
Read the entire approval notice: identity, dates, entry deadline and conditions. Keep it available offline. Do not assume the visa starts on your preferred date.
Step 4
Get ready for the trip
Prepare USD 3,000 or the TWD equivalent plus a return ticket or funds for one. Ask the office about insurance evidence and the actual entry deadline. The page’s intake wording does not prove places remain.
- Passport, visa and requested evidence accessible offline.
- Initial funds, insurance and departure costs checked separately.
- First accommodation and airport transport arranged.
Step 5
Start your Working Holiday
Enter within the terms of the actual visa, with an address and comprehensive insurance, and follow immigration’s residence-card collection or delivery instructions. The entry visa is separate from the 12-month residence permission.
