Hi, is there any metrics on how many business closed because of covid in Taiwan ?
I was thinking something like an historical count of business closure since 2018 to today

It’s the statistics for survived / closed business count within the selected month, by cities

Data in XLS format is available here

Number of dismissed businesses per month by district

really appreciate @mrorz
i think the impact of pandemic may reflect in July & August 2021, which is not available in the system yet.
yes I agree, looking forward to see that data
Hmm instead of companies, I think business registrations would be more accurate. Most restaurants and independent shops won’t have a company

Do you know more about the business registration without forming a company? You can register the business as a natural person? This option is available to foreigners?
I'm registered as a natural person in another country but I never saw info on that topic here. All the articles I read always refer to forming a company. (I supposed) the closest way to open a business with the minimum costs was to set up a sole proprietorship (unlimited liability transparent for tax purposes). It seemed a bit complicated to me for a simple freelancer :)

I am not sure if foreigners can register a business.
But it seems that business (商號, sole proprietorship) and company (公司) are different.

Thanks. Yes, that's the sole proprietorship thing. Lowtax says you can do it as a foreigner.
When I was considering setting-up activities in Taiwan (before finding out it's not the best idea), it seemed like the cheapest thing to do and the closest status to a "freelancer status" or a "business in as a natural person", but I never found anyone who set-up a sole proprietorship, nor had information/costs about that from services providers.
If people here made a sole proprietorship, I'd be curious to hear about their experience, incl. admin costs.

this round of vaccine is open to age 65 up and age 55 up with certain health status
2021-08-11
CECC had announced today that next round of vaccine will be domestic produced MVC vaccine, http://mvc.covid19diag.com/
There will be 0.6-0.8 million of vaccines available.
The pre-register will close on 8/13 12:00pm on 1922.gov.tw Reservation begin from 8/16-18 and injection on 8/23-29

The pre-register will close on 8/13 12:00pm on 1922.gov.tw Reservation begin from 8/16-18 and injection on 8/23-29
guess that this time could eventually lower the age limit to around 30 or so, based on current opt-in numbers of MVC vaccine, about 1.1M people so far, according to the this afternoon news
the age limit is lower to age 20+, you can make reservation at 1922.gov.tw now.
Additional round of MVC vaccine is open to age 20-35 from today 1600 to 8/20 12:00. you can make reservation at 1922.gov.tw now.
