Taiwan household registration and tax incentive policies

Overview

Local governments in Taiwan are highlighting the connection between household registration and tax benefits. In New Taipei City, tax officials warned that changes to household registration can significantly impact property tax, land value tax, and land appreciation tax refunds. Residents must meet specific registration deadlines to qualify for preferential self-use rates, and failure to maintain registration for required periods may result in the recovery of previously refunded taxes.

In Chiayi City, the government has introduced an integrated service to streamline this process. Citizens can now apply for preferential land value tax rates for self-use residential land simultaneously when transferring household registration. This cross-agency notification system allows the registration office to notify the taxation bureau automatically, provided the landowner is the one transferring the registration.
