    I run my own business so it wasn’t a hard transition from the USA. But I know many expats here and it’s quite simple to get a “Gold Card” which is Taiwan’s version of the green card.

    There is a list of professions that they are looking for and if your income is a certain amount in the US(i think 80k or so), you can apply for it here. A few years ago they were bringing in alternative energy people. So many of my friends are in the wind industries.

    Income is not as high as America, but (outside of rent)cost of living is 1/5. So it’s all relative.
