    Hi Nolie, being HIV positive is not a barrier to employment in Taiwan as a foreign national.

    Access to treatment for the first two years will be required to be self-funded.

    When reporting to the CDC after 2 years of employment, assistance from the Taiwanese government can be granted to help with treatment.

    This is explained further here: https://www.hivtravel.org/Default.aspx?PageId=143&CountryId=175
