What QuoteBill's data says about Business Tax (VAT) in Taiwan
The rate is shown as it was recorded in QuoteBill's data on 2026-09-17. That is not a statement that it is the rate in force today.
Taiwan levies a business tax, not a tax named VAT. 5% is the current rate for general VAT-system businesses in the data; the law lets the Executive Yuan set it between 5% and 10%.

A worked example
Starting from a net amount of TWD 1,234.00 at 5%: Business Tax (VAT) comes to TWD 61.70 and the gross amount to TWD 1,295.70.
Starting from the gross amount of TWD 1,295.70 at 5%: the net amount is TWD 1,234.00 and the Business Tax (VAT) is TWD 61.70.
How the result is worked out
From a net amount: tax = net × rate, rounded half up to the smallest unit of the currency (TWD: 2 decimal places). From a gross amount: tax = gross × rate ÷ (100% + rate) and net = gross − tax, so net and tax always add up to the gross amount.
A withholding or other deduction is worked out on the net amount, or on the amount with tax if you choose that, and taken from the gross amount to give the amount payable. You type its rate yourself; nothing is filled in.
