Taiwan employment visa medical
As part of your Taiwan work visa, Health Klinix can offer a full Taiwan employment visa medical service. This consists of the following:
A full medical examination is a requirement as part of a Taiwan visa medical. This consists of a physical examination, blood pressure, blood tests and a chest X-ray. One of our GMC certified doctors will perform the examination. Although we can't guarantee either a male or a female doctor, you do have the right to have a chaperone present to the examination.
A full medical examination
These consist of the following: HIV test, syphilis screen, measles and rubella vaccination certificates or proof of measles and rubella titres, stool examination (some nationals only). Either a doctor or nurse will do these at the same time as your medical examination.
Blood tests
A chest X-ray is required and will need to take place at a local hospital. We’ll arrange this appointment for you and make sure it goes as smoothly as possible. Please note this may be subject to change and an alternative provider may be used for the chest X-ray. You will, however, be able to choose your own appointment time. They're opening times are 9 am to 7pm weekdays and 9am to 12 p.m on Saturdays. You don't need to pay anything to Spire Hospital as Health Klinix will cover this cost.

Health Klinix can make a careful travel risk assessment and make recommendations on the vaccinations that you might need. There’s normally a consultation charge for this but as you're already having a medical examination, the cost of the travel consultation is free and you’ll only pay for any vaccinations you receive.
