Hello everyone. I’m @olivertomolife and I’ve studied abroad in Kaohsiung!

I’ve been living in Taiwan for a while now, and I’ve looked up some of the most famous online stores in Taiwan!

Experienced a working holiday in Kaohsiung for a year from February 2020. Currently, I am writing a blog based on that experience.

Is there an Amazon in Taiwan?

As it turns out, there is no Amazon in Taiwan, but there are many other useful online stores.





Each one has its own special features, so some people seem to use them differently.





There is a wide range of online stores, from those specializing in cosmetics to those specializing in household goods.

Personally recommended online stores

The site I would personally recommend is MOMO.





I personally recommend MOMO because it’s a unique Taiwanese site.





Other sites have sites from other countries, so I don’t really trust them.





In fact, I used to buy my protein from MOMO a lot, so I have some shopping experience.





I used to use it a lot because it was so convenient, getting my stuff delivered within a day of placing my order!





It was also easy to contact them for redelivery, so I think it’s an easy site for foreigners to use.
