This tea like all tea types comes from the same Camellia sinensis tea plant, and as stated above is a type in between green and black teas.

This is because the tea leaves are processed more than green tea leaves, but are not allowed to fully oxidize as the case with black tea. This tea is considered a semi-oxidized tea, and depending on the processing, which can vary between 10 to 70 percent oxidation, yields many varieties.

The brew of oolong tea is sometimes brown, hence the name brown tea, yet sometimes gives a golden-like glow, this of course depending on the variety. The taste can be either woody or flowery as well.

The Health Benefits
Like white and green teas, oolong has many health benefits to offer. This tea has proven to destroy free radicals, which are known to cause certain cancers and even aging of the skin. A list of benefits include:

# A stronger immune system
# Healthy teeth
# Younger looking skin
# Aids in weight loss

Now while weight loss seems to be the most common benefit associated with wu long tea that I have come across, the above list gives us more insight .

More Focus On Weight Loss
Oolong tea has helped many folks lose weight.

Like green tea, oolong has the same calorie burning catechin polyphenols that along with proper dieting and exercise can help folks shed some pounds.

By inducing “thermogenesis”, the act of the body heating up which results in greater fat oxidation, studies have shown that this tea helps control obesity. Drinking 3 cups a day can bring noticeable results in under one month.

After receiving your employment approval letter (work permit) issued by the government authority for employment in the ROC, you then need to apply for your resident visa at a Ministry Of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) branch. You’ll then need to take a brief trip abroad (say, to Hong Kong) to pick up your entry visa. When you return, you will be permitted to apply for an Alien Resident Certificate (ARC.) If you have been issued a resident visa, you must apply for an ARC at the nearest city or county police headquarters within 15 days after arrival in Taiwan or within 15 days of issue of the visa. You should apply for a multiple entry certificate, which allows for visits outside and return to the ROC.

If you marry an R.O.C national, you can also apply for an entry visa provided you have no criminal record. This does not necessarily grant you the LEGAL right to work in Taiwan (women can claim the title of “homemaker” but men must show that he has sufficient funds to pay all the living expenses for the family.)

If you enter Taiwan on a visitor visa you can apply for the resident visa without leaving the island. If you enter on a landing visa, you must go abroad to obtain a resident visa. If you entered Taiwan on a visitor visa and became employed you can change your visa to a Resident Visa but may have to make a brief ‘visa run’ to a nearby country and back to do so.

NOTE: ARC holders are required by law to carry their ARC with them at all times. They are renewable yearly and in some cases 2 or 3 year basis. The new ARC’s will stilluse the same ARC number issued originally and will not change after renewal.

Documents Required:
Time required for processing is approximately 2 weeks.
1) Application form (Form V-I)
2) Employment Approval letter issued by the government authority for
the expatriate’s employment in the ROC
3) Guaranty paper (required only for expatriates from certain
countries, including India, Iran, Israel, etc…)
4) The original and one photocopy of the passport, including the resident visa. The original will be returned after verification.
5) Marriage certificate, if applicable (Must be notarized by a notary
public and legalized by the ROC Consulate or functional equivalent)
6) 2 recent passport size photos (2” photographs color or b&w)
7) Birth certificates of expatriate’s children, if applicable (must show
the name of the parents and be notarized and legalized)
As of 2002, all ARC applicants must have a health-check/AIDS test as well. (Any hospital can perform this as they know the drill well…)

Visa Fees:
1. Resident visas for single entry: NT$2,200 p/application if applied in the ROC
US$66 per application if applied overseas.
2. NT$3,000 per application if applied in the ROC;
US$90 per application if applied overseas.
NOTE: For those with a Resident Visa, you must go to your local police station and apply for a re-entry permit if you plan to leave and come back to Taiwan. This requires filling out a simple form and getting a white stamp in you passport. The whole process takes about 5 minutes.

Document & Fee Required for Alien Resident Certificate Application:
1. In addition to above, the following documents, as appropriate:
i. Employees or investors: The original and one photocopy of the official letter of approval issued by the competent authority, and the employment certificate. The original will be returned after verification.
ii. Students: The original and one photocopy of the student card or the enrollment certificate issued by a university or college accredited by the Ministry of Education.
iii. Missionaries: The original and one photocopy of an official letter of approval from the religious institution.
iv. Dependents: Relationship documents, such as birth certificate, a marriage certificate, a transcript of household registration, an Alien Resident Certificate, etc.

6. Fees: 1 Year: NT$1000; 2 Years: NT$2000; 3 Years: NT$3000

NOTE:
a) Failure to extend the ARC before the expiry date will result in automatic cancellation of the ARC and mandatory deportation.

b) Any resident alien who applies for an Alien Resident Certificate may complete an application for a re-entry permit at the same time.
