Companies that set up operations in export processing zones, science industrial parks, and agricultural biotechnology parks, or establish bonded factories, bonded warehouses, or logistics centers are eligible for exemptions from import duties, commodity taxes, and business taxes for the import of machinery and equipment, raw materials, fuel, semi-processed materials, and semi-finished products for their own use. Individual industrial parks also provide other tax incentives or assistance measures.
The Management Bureau may provide assistance for industrial-academic cooperation in innovation and R&D. Applicant institutions must obtain qualifications as being engaged in "scientific industry" and use the industrial-academic cooperation model for the application. Each approved R&D project is eligible for up to NT$10 million, provided that the subsidies shall not exceed 50% of the total budget for the project. Import duties are exempted for machinery and equipment used for research and development.
