Moved here from the Travel Forum
Hey there. I’m considering coming to explore Taiwan probably for about the span of a 90 tourist visa - based in Taipei for the majority.
My work is based online and I was planning on continuing to work for the duration of my travels. As part of my job I have to connect to servers based out of China and other places. Are there any restrictions or prohibitions I should worry about that might make this a problem?
Many thanks.
Internet here is only available Monday to Friday between 6 am and 10 pm. Apart from that you should be fine.
Accessing the mainland shouldn’t be an issue afaik. It’s just accessing Taiwan from the mainland that can sometimes be difficult.
I feel obligated to point out, however, that it sounds like you would be working illegally (by not having a work permit). You can search for previous threads about the issue.
There’s also the Act Governing Relations between the People of the Taiwan Area and the Mainland Area:
