Taiwan Manufacturing Industry
Framework
IRON LAW: Taiwan Manufacturing = Global Supply Chain Chokepoint
Taiwan's manufacturing is NOT just domestic industry — it's a critical
node in global supply chains. TSMC alone produces ~90% of the world's
most advanced chips. Analyzing Taiwan manufacturing without the global
supply chain context misses the point entirely.

Key Characteristics
OEM/ODM model: Taiwan excels at manufacturing for global brands, not building its own consumer brands (exceptions: ASUS, HTC, Giant)
SME-dominated: 98% of Taiwan companies are SMEs (<200 employees). The manufacturing base is a network of specialized SMEs, not a few megacorps
Guide Taiwan company registration and legal setup including business entity selection, commercial registration, company registration, and tax ID application. Use this skill when the user is starting a business in Taiwan, choosing between sole proprietorship and company, or navigating the registration process — even if they say 'how do I set up a company in Taiwan', 'what's the registration process', 'sole proprietorship vs company', or 'I want to start a business'.
