This may not be such an easy question to answer.
I have reviewed the threads unsuccessfully
Anyway at the moment, I have an ARC/residency etc through my company, however I have been in Taiwan since September 1998 ( 183 days in 5 consecutive years and have been working) and I am married to an ROC citizen
Therefore I have three ways to get residency
However which one is the best to use
- Company
If I ever change jobs I have to go through the whole ARC application for a different job again and it involves just hassle
- Permanant residency
I either can apply for this now or will be able to in 2 months. I should get it I think
- Residency through marriage
With the household reg, Clean criminal record ( easy to do and get). Although I hear now that they only give this for a year and after that I need to reapply
I am worried though if I ever choose to use number 2 or 3, then I forfeit the other option in the future. I also may leave Taiwan for a couple of years in about two years and make come back later
Any advice or insight would be great
Thanks
