Q3. How is 10 months of residency calculated to qualify?

The period of household registration is calculated from the last date of household registration in New Taipei City to the date of birth of the newborn. If the household registration was continuously established in Keelung City, Taipei City, or Taoyuan City before the last move, the period can be included in the calculation. If the household registration is subsequently moved out to a county or city other than Keelung, Taipei, Taipei, or Taoyuan after the last move, the period of household registration needs to be recalculated.


Q4. How can I read the annual amount in 115 years without making a mistake?

The birth incentive for children born on or after January 1, 2016 is NT$40,000 for the first child, NT$45,000 for the second child, and NT$50,000 for the third child and above. The amount is subject to the announcement of the Civil Affairs Bureau and the latest information from the household registration office.

Applications submitted in the year of birth may be issued retroactively from the month of birth; applications not submitted in the year of birth will, in principle, be issued retroactively from January of the year of application.
