How to Enroll in the National Health Insurance
The National Health Insurance Act stipulates that foreigners who are legal residents of Taiwan (including from Hong Kong, Macau and China) must either be registered in the health insurance program by their employer starting the day they are employed or should enroll in the program on their own six full months to the day after they obtain legal residency. Foreign students can apply to be covered under the program by their school.

A person staying in Taiwan for six full months prescribed in the Act refers to a person who has, after entering into Taiwan, stayed in Taiwan for six consecutive months or exited Taiwan once for fewer than 30 days with the actual period of stay amounting to six months after the number of days that he or she has been away from Taiwan is deducted.
