    Hello Brian and thanks for the question.

    If you are planning to move countries please check out this site with more information:

    I can only answer about the UK but here we provide free ARVs for anyone living with HIV.
    And they are given for a long time, throughout someone’s lifetime

    My concern is when we get there, do we get drugs which we will take for a while or long time.

    Hi Tanzzy, thanks. i-Base is focussed on HIV treatment. We refer to this website for info on travel and visa’s:
    https://www.positivedestinations.info/country-database/country/taiwan-roc

    It sounds like it is important to check directly with the Taiwanese embassy first.

    There’s someone * Max posted July 2024, about working as a Teacher in Taiwan. He feared his HIV status could hinder him getting the job or resident certificate. I’m here to assure him that for the medical examination for foreign workers HIV is tested Taiwan.
