Does anyone know what this means in practice? Are there any loopholes for landlords to deny household registration?

In the case of repairs, the new guidelines stipulate that it is the responsibility of the landlord to make repairs unless the damage was caused by the tenant.

There are some landlords who won’t take kindly to this.

The new guidelines focus on three main aspects of renters’ frustrations in Taiwan, though it will contain additional regulations.

Hmm, I wonder if “I don’t rent to foreigners” is addressed?

Glad to see they’re finally doing something to check the absolutely awful landlords I hear about all the time.

Now if they would just do something about the assholes who raise the rent, booting people out of business, and then just let the property sit around unused…

fixed it for ya
