[quote=“Lee Kohl”]For a rep office:
Your first step is to get a legalized copy of the certificate of incorporation you received when you opened your company. Contact the Taiwan office in your country on what their requirements are in order to perform the legalization–they are the ones who do it, and they will have some other conditions before they’ll accept the document.[/quote]
OK, i’ll see whether i can start that process next time i’m at home (in a few weeks)…
It looks like that point is already covered… 
No rush: i’ll send you the draft that i am writing up right now, based on various posts in this thread - then you only need to fix that (i hope 
)
Appreciate the offer 
, but for the time being my income will come from Japan, so i don’t need a branch office.
(In the future i may set up a separate business in Taiwan to deal with any income-generating work on this side or join an already existing business.)
Anyway, thanks for the quick reply!
