About international schools in Taiwan
Secondary international schools in Taiwan are predominantly English-medium institutions that serve expatriate families and other foreign-passport holders, and they commonly offer international pathways such as the International Baccalaureate, American high-school diplomas with Advanced Placement options, and British IGCSE/A-level tracks alongside some Mandarin - English bilingual programmes. Fees vary substantially by school and location, but secondary tuition at established international schools commonly runs from several hundred thousand to over one million New Taiwan dollars per year, with additional one-off capital levies, transport and activity costs often charged separately. The academic year follows the northern-hemisphere pattern with a main August/September intake, though many schools operate rolling or mid-year admissions when places are available and will ask for transcripts, passport/ARC documentation and immunisation records during application. Under Taiwan’s regulatory framework, most schools licensed for “international residents” admit only students holding foreign nationality or dual nationality, so families should confirm eligibility and visa/ARC implications early in their move.
