Way to Calculate the Number of Days that Foreigners Stayed in Taiwan

Case:
 
Mike is a Singaporean, he came to Taiwan to learn Mandarin on 5th March, 2018. After the course ended on 30th of June, Mike found a job in Taipei which is a Singapore company. Mike started to work on 1st of July, after he received the working permit.
 
The company dispatched Mike to the Thailand branch for business trip on 8th of September, he back to Taiwan on 3rd of November, and continue to stay in Taiwan until 31st of December.
 
Answer:
 
To calculate the number of days stayed in Taiwan, whether the reason is dependent, studying, working or traveling, should be calculated in the number of days stayed in Taiwan (the actual number of days stayed). According to the regulation of Administrative Procedure Act Articles No.48 Section No.2, mentioned that the first day in Taiwan does not count as the number of days stayed in Taiwan, but the last day in Taiwan will be counted. It means that the arrival date does not count as the number of days stayed in Taiwan, but the departure day counted as the day stayed in Taiwan. For the ones that departure multiple times in a year, day of residence should be accumulated.
 
According to the description of preceding paragraph, the total number of days that Mike stayed in Taiwan is 245 days, that is 187 days (from 6th of March to 8th of September) adding 58 days (from 4th of November to 31st of December). Mike is a resident mentioned in the Income Tax Act.
