I'm going taiwan tomorrow and i don't have a single cent of twd yet. It's safe to wait till i reach taoyuan airport to change right?

I changed at dbs taiwan last year, but i guess it's not that worth to go find one this time with the 1% imposed. Anybody knows how is it like to withdraw from the dbs taiwan atm? Any charges imposed?

Thanks. We'll be on the same flight then. Hahaha. I forgot that i have no twd left and now i have no time to change unless at changi airport. If i can't change at taoyuan, then I'll be in trouble ;)

I'll probably not go all the way to withdraw from dbs atm. But it's good to know so i can change less.

Taoyuan airport sure can change. They have several counters, some are before customs at the luggage pickup belt area.

I'm planning to subscribe to M1's data passport since i can't finish my 12gb data bundle anyways. Cost about the same as getting a prepaid and i don't hava to remove my own sim or bring an extra phone.

But you can always have breakfast at the airport while waitng, since not much to do at that hour too.

Yeah, make sure not the crossover of your billing cycle.
If not it will be 10+2+10 deal.
