Moving from Taiwan to India: ARC + NHI Exit
Taiwan ARC cancellation, NHI exit, labor pension export, and India RNOR landing with Schedule FA.
The 60-second version
Taiwan exit requires ARC cancellation and tax office notification. I export labor pension statements and close Taiwan bank before India RNOR landing.
ARC cancel is the hard gate
Alien Resident Certificate (ARC) ties me to Taiwan tax and health systems — employer initiates cancel on last work day.
National Health Insurance (NHI) stops on employment end; keep cancellation letter for India insurance porting.
