which can be written in either of two<br />

forms: an informal 元 or a formal 圓 , (used<br />

interchangeably). Notes come in NT$2,000,<br />

NT$1,000, NT$500, NT$200 <strong>and</strong> NT$100<br />

denominations. Coins come in NT$50, NT$20,<br />

NT$10, NT$5 <strong>and</strong> NT$1 denominations.<br />

Visitors may take up to NT$40,000 into<br />

<strong>Taiwan</strong>, but will need a permit from the<br />

Ministry of Finance for the import of<br />
