No work visa, the months were many two/three week business trips.
Also, if they gave him the tax bill, they must have been aware of his work and salary. The only way they would know that is if he’d of told them in some formal application
Thanks SuperS54. The important bit for me in that document is if you stay more than 183 days a year, you are considered a resident. And a resident needs an ARC

The law is you need to file a return if you are in Taiwan 90 days cumulatively in a tax year. You don’t need to be a resident or have a work permit to file and pay whatever you might owe.
that is a tax resident. The person is taxed as resident regardless of whether the person has a residency in Taiwan. Even a citizen can be treated as a tax non resident, if the stay is less than 31 days.

You won’t find it. They’ll take the tax from you as long as you go there and pay it. They don’t seem to consider themselves to be in the business of checking your legal right to work or other credentials. Also, an organization may pay withholding tax on your behalf without doing so.
The fact that you paid the tax may later be used by other government organs as proof that you have worked illegally, however.
