6. Important Note
The Company Law in Taiwan does not impose a minimum amount of registered capital for the purpose of company registration. However, the investor is still required to state a particular amount of registered capital in the Article of Association of the Taiwan company and the said amount should be remitted to Taiwan at the time of registration. In this connection, we suggest that the amount to be stated in the Article of Association should be sufficient to fund the operation of the Taiwan company for the first six months after incorporation.
