Can foreign nationals become street artists in Taipei City? How can I apply?
Anyone 16 years of age or older that is active in the arts or a member of an arts group, whether an ROC citizen or a citizen of another country, can apply to be an officially recognized street artist in Taipei. According to regulations regarding foreign nationals seeking employment in Taiwan, written permission to work issued by the ROC Council of Labor Affairs, along with photocopies of your passport and visa, must be presented at the time of application. During the application period (which takes place twice a year), you may present these documents along with an application form, and then take part in a review process. Successful applicants will be issued a street performance permit.
