Taichung
Book the correct Taichung station—and the part of the city you need.
HSR Taichung is in Wuri, not the central railway station.
Arrange the last leg before leaving the train.
A factory visit and a first introduction need different preparation.
Arriving & getting aroundPlan the whole journey.
If arriving by high-speed rail, book the pickup at HSR Taichung in Wuri. The connected TRA station is Xinwuri; central Taichung railway station is a different destination. Use the station’s official transfer information to choose rail, metro or a booked car, then send a precise exit to the person collecting you.

Map the places you will visit before choosing between a hotel near the HSR stop and one near daily appointments. A short station transfer can become several unnecessary cross-city journeys. For a serviced apartment, check staffed reception, visitor access and where an evening driver can wait without exposing your room location.
Meetings & transactionsDecide the boundaries before you meet.
For a supplier or factory visit, verify the company and named host through an independently found business contact before travelling. A genuine industrial address can still be remote from your hotel. First introductions belong in a staffed public venue; do not combine a site tour with an unplanned crypto settlement or cash pickup.
Family & longer staysMake the arrangements work for everyone.
If others are sightseeing while you work, give them their own transport budget and a named return point. Treat a mountain excursion as a separate trip, with weather and road checks rather than an improvised extension to dinner. Taiwan travel advice flags road disruption after typhoons, especially in central and southern areas.
