Payroll Features in Taiwan

Mercans Payroll Software is a leading payroll software Taiwan solution designed to streamline payroll management software and support compliance with Taiwan’s labour, tax, labour insurance, labour pension, and National Health Insurance requirements. As a comprehensive Taiwan payroll system, it supports all aspects of payroll processing, offering organizations powerful tools for accuracy, efficiency, and compliance. Our cloud payroll software integrates seamlessly with existing systems, delivering superior payroll solutions for businesses of all sizes.

Legal and Regulatory Framework

Taiwan’s payroll environment operates under key regulations and administrative systems, including the Labor Standards Act, the Income Tax Act, the Labor Pension Act, Labor Insurance, and National Health Insurance rules. Compliance is critical, and Mercans’ payroll compliance software helps employers manage payroll processing in line with these local requirements while reducing complexity.

Key Payroll Components

Mercans’ Taiwan payroll processing software covers all essential elements, including:

  • Wages and Compensation – standard monthly wages, overtime pay, and bonuses.
  • Mandatory Social Insurance and Pension – Labor Insurance, National Health Insurance, Labor Occupational Accident Insurance, and Labor Pension contributions where applicable.
  • Income Tax Withholding – withholding workflows for residents and non-residents in line with Taiwan tax rules.
  • Allowances – meals, housing, transport, and other payroll items according to employer policy and local treatment rules.

Our payroll calculation tools help support accuracy for every payroll cycle.

Compliance and Administration

Taiwan requires employers to maintain accurate payroll and attendance records, provide wage information to employees, make salary payments in accordance with applicable employment terms, and manage registration and reporting obligations with relevant authorities. Mercans’ payroll automation helps streamline these compliance processes, reducing administrative burden and supporting accuracy.

Employment and Leave Entitlements

Key entitlements include annual paid leave, ordinary sick leave, maternity and paternity related leave, and overtime pay calculations under applicable rules. Annual paid leave is a statutory entitlement under Taiwan’s Labor Standards Act, and unused leave may require payment under the law. Bonuses such as a 13th-month salary may be customary in some sectors but are not generally mandated by statute. Termination, severance, and pension handling follow regulated rules. Mercans’ employee payroll software offers payroll attendance integration and payroll outsourcing services to help employers manage these processes in a structured and reliable way.
