6. Taiwan Tourism Bureau & Local Government Supports

Taiwan Tourism Bureau and local governments also provide souvenirs, site inspections and administrative assistants, as well as subsidies for meetings and incentive tours that fit the criteria.

Plus, to encourage overseas enterprises to bring more incentive tours to Taiwan, MEET TAIWAN established a Partner Package to build partnerships with suppliers from abroad. MEET TAIWAN offers different levels of incentives mostly based on the number of persons that are successfully brought to Taiwan. 

7. Safety

Taipei is also ranked 5th safest city in the world. Therefore, it makes planning MICE incentive trips to Taiwan less hassle because your delegates safety is your responsibility and priority too.

8. Internet Connectivity

Getting wifi hotspots and internet connectivity in major cities of Taiwan is hassle-free.
