Are there any restrictions in terms of scope and sector for foreign investment in Taiwan?
Currently, Taiwan has deregulated nearly 95% of all foreign investment. Taiwan allows foreigners to invest in all sectors except in a few areas where conditional restrictions apply. These areas include sectors which may impinge upon national security, public harmony, social behavior, public health and those sectors restricted under law or prohibited under international agreements. Therefore, some foreign investments in Taiwan are managed under the negative list.

Negative List for Investment by Overseas Chinese and Foreign Nationals.
