Ministry of Finance, R.O.C. (Taiwan)

Administers Taiwan's tax and treasury system, including incentives and public finance administration for innovation sectors.

Taiwan's Ministry of Finance (MOF) is the central fiscal authority responsible for tax policy and administration, customs, national treasury, state property, and public-private partnership oversight. It is not a grant-issuing agency. The only fiscal incentives MOF administers are non-discretionary tax credits — R&D credits under the Statute for Industrial Innovation and smart-machinery/5G/AI investment tax credits — which are deductions on corporate-income-tax returns, not competitive grants. Innovation R&D grants and startup funding for Taiwan-based companies come from MOEA, NSTC, NDC, and SMEA.
