Friendly service measures to help new residents adapt to life in Taiwan

I. There is a service window for new residents at each office
To assist new residents in naturalizing their nationality, and in case they encounter any problems or needs regarding their rights and interests during their stay in Taiwan, there are "New Immigrant Service Counters" at all of the city's household affairs offices; it can provide appropriate referral services immediately. In addition, the naturalization test, which is regularly conducted by each household office every two months, can be arranged on an on-call basis depending on the needs of each case.

To implement measures for the care of new residents in Taiwan, to enhance their ability to adapt to life in Taiwan, to avoid family and social problems arising from maladjustment, and to enable new residents to integrate smoothly into the living environment of our country, each year, depending on the needs of new immigrants, combining local culture and integrating resources from various agencies, we provide uninterrupted life adaptation courses for new immigrants in their respective administrative districts, promote exchanges among new immigrants, and expand their living circles.
