The official page states that investment may reach up to 49% and expects Taiwan relevance, international co-financing or co-production structure, and a credible international distribution route.
The official site shows the 2026 edition will run from November 6 to November 9. Pitching remains one of Taiwan’s strongest routes for co-production, investment, and international project exposure.
TCCF Market is one of the main places for overseas buyers, producers, and cultural institutions to meet Taiwan film, animation, publishing, game, and culture-tech teams.
The platform continuously showcases Taiwan XR, immersive, interactive, and culture-tech cases. It is a strong starting point for understanding formats, language, and collaboration patterns in Taiwan.
The official announcement set the deadline on June 9, 2026 and focused on culture-tech works that are already developed and ready for market validation or business model testing.
This is the core official route for international productions planning to shoot or produce in Taiwan. The program hub is where teams check local spend, documents, eligibility, and production rules.
The official page lists scouting support, permitting help, and Taipei Film Fund information. It is useful for teams that need to test locations and local execution conditions first.
BAMID continues to publish rules and award lists for virtual production support. This makes it a useful route for VP, XR, LED volume, and VFX-led projects to monitor.
The official site shows the 2026 expo will run from August 2 to August 11. It is one of the most important trade-show entry points for Taiwan creative brands, curation, licensing, and content partnerships.
The official site positions Golden Pin as a major design award in Asia and a credible bridge into Taiwan’s design ecosystem for overseas brands and studios.
COMPUTEX remains one of Taiwan’s most important ICT trade shows. For AI, hardware, systems, and technology brands, it is a core place to meet buyers, partners, and Taiwan’s wider tech ecosystem.
Held alongside COMPUTEX, InnoVEX is explicitly focused on startups, national pavilions, investors, and pitch opportunities. It is an efficient route for technology startups entering Taiwan or Asia.
Startup Terrace lists both International Pilot Program and Soft Landing Program and positions Linkou and Kaohsiung as international startup campuses backed by Taiwan’s Small and Medium Enterprise and Startup Administration.
The PCC rules explain that Taiwan’s government e-procurement system offers multiple search functions for tender notices, awards, and procurement information. It is the baseline route for tracking public tenders in Taiwan.
The PCC publishes tender-related forms and templates, including bidder instructions, service procurement contracts, and arts procurement templates. This is especially useful for culture, design, and content teams preparing to bid.
Program rules, amounts, timing, and eligibility can change. Final conditions always depend on each official source. Last manual check: June 17, 2026.

The biggest blockers are unclear applicant entities, missing Taiwan partners, weak budget structure, and rights or deliverables that have not been defined early enough.
Yes. Annual programs tend to repeat the same logic. If you prepare your deck, budget, partner structure, and bilingual materials now, you can move much faster when the next round opens.
