Statutory financial statement audit

Who it is for

Privately held and mid-market companies in Taiwan that need an independent opinion on annual accounts.

What you receive

A signed audit opinion, a management letter covering control observations, and a clear walkthrough of adjustments discussed with your finance team.

Scope of work

Planning, risk assessment, substantive testing of material balances, cut-off procedures, and final reporting.

Included

• Engagement letter and independence confirmation
• Risk-based audit plan aligned to your chart of accounts
• Testing of revenue, receivables, inventory, payables, and cash
• Draft findings meeting before the final report
• Audit opinion and management letter in English

Not included

• Bookkeeping or preparation of the financial statements themselves
• Tax return filing
• Valuation opinions outside the audited balances

Provider

Senior auditors based at our Tamsui office, supervised by an engagement partner.

Typical duration

Typically four to eight weeks from kickoff, depending on ledger complexity and response times.

Location

On-site at your Taiwan office, hybrid, or document-based work from Tamsui.

Preparation

Trial balance, bank confirmations, inventory count schedules, related-party listings, and prior-year working papers if available.

Constraints

We do not audit entities where independence would be impaired. Peak season from January to April requires earlier booking.

Pricing basis

Quoted per engagement based on entity size, locations, and account complexity. Starting reference on the Fees page.
