The Canadian Dollar holds a favorable position against the Taiwan Dollar, with 1 CAD typically buying around 23.21 TWD.

Frequently Asked Questions
The New Taiwan Dollar is heavily influenced by the global tech sector and trade balances. As Canada is a major partner in these industries, shifts in tech demand or interest rate changes in either country can impact the CAD/TWD rate.
ATMs are located in almost every convenience store (7-Eleven, FamilyMart) and generally offer the best exchange rates for foreign cards. Always choose to be charged in TWD rather than CAD to avoid poor “Dynamic Currency Conversion” rates.
Tipping is not traditional in Taiwan. However, high-end restaurants often add a mandatory 10% service charge to the bill. For street food and casual dining, no tip is required or expected.
