Do the airport bank / money changer open on saturday?

Got it :

"Currency restriction:
The import and export of local currency is limited to NT$40,000 and a permit from the Ministry of Finance is required for amounts over NT$8,000. The import and export of foreign currency is unlimited, although amounts over NT$10,000 must be declared on arrival. All exchange receipts must be retained"

Thats why exchange rate is lower than in taiwan.

yah u only need to declare ,

"All travellers are required to make a currency declaration in writing together with the baggage declaration. Unused currency can be reconverted on departure, on production of exchange receipts. Various bureaux de change are on hand to convert international currency into New Taiwan Dollars, although the rate of exchange offered by ATMs is generally more attractive"
