Withholding & Non-withholding tax statement

Hi guys, may I ask if there’s any of you guys that needed to pay taxes even if you’re not an employee in Taiwan?
I just graduated recently and haven’t worked for any company yet, tho I still received the Tax & Non-withholding tax statement from CTBC. So I guess it’s bcuz I have the foreign account in CTBC bank and being counted as investors here. Should I go to CTBC or tax office to pay for it? Thanks.

It’s because you earn interest in your bank account and this money is partially tax withheld.

No. The tax has already been withheld, probably at the you’re-a-foreigner rate of 20%. That’s what these statements are about.

If you file a tax return next year, any excess withheld tax should be incorporated into that.

I see. That explains. Thank you.
