BOVF branch
Taiwan
Our Taiwan branch grew out of a joint event with BritCham Taipei, and reflects that origin: professionals and business owners, concerned with fee status for their children and with keeping UK banking relationships open.

What matters most here
Every branch works on all eight key issues. These are the ones raised most often in Taiwan.
Higher Education and University Fees
British children raised abroad are routinely classified as international students at UK universities, paying several times the home rate despite holding UK citizenship.
UK Bank Accounts
UK banks increasingly close or refuse accounts held by citizens with an overseas address, cutting people off from pensions, mortgages and their own financial history.
Fully Functional Voting
Only 52% of overseas postal ballots were returned in time to be counted in 2024. Having the right to vote is not the same as being able to use it.
Guides for Taiwan
Country-specific guides for Taiwan are planned. This slot is where they will appear — see the Thailand and Italy guides for the format.
