Independent financial auditing for companies that need clear findings, carefully tested balances, and a report boards can stand behind.
What we examine
Auditing that follows the numbers, not a script
From Peitou we work with manufacturers, trading firms, and professional practices across northern Taiwan. Engagements centre on source documents, bank reconciliations, cut-off testing, and the judgements that sit behind the notes.

Independent audit of annual financial statements for companies reporting under Taiwan GAAP or locally adopted IFRS.

Statutory financial audit
Our core engagement for companies preparing annual financial statements under Taiwan GAAP or IFRS as adopted locally. We plan materiality with your finance lead, test revenue recognition and inventory existence, and issue an independent auditor’s report with management letter points you can act on.
Typical fieldwork runs two to six weeks depending on entity size, branch count, and whether prior-year files are available. We work on-site in Taipei when sampling needs the warehouse floor, and remotely when the books are already digitised.

From a recent client
“They caught a cut-off error on three export invoices that would have overstated December revenue. The management letter was blunt, which we needed.”
Before fieldwork begins
How an engagement unfolds
We keep the path predictable so your accounting team can plan around month-end close.
Scoping call
We confirm entity structure, reporting framework, and whether component auditors or specialists are required.
Planning & risk assessment
Materiality, significant accounts, and walkthroughs of revenue, purchases, and payroll cycles.
Fieldwork & testing
Sample selections, confirmations, inventory observation, and follow-up on exceptions.
Report & closing meeting
Draft findings, adjusted entries, and a closing discussion with management and, when requested, the board.
Field notes
Practical reading for finance teams
Year-end cut-off mistakes we still see in northern Taiwan books
Export invoices dated in December with January bills of lading remain a common source of overstated revenue before audit fieldwork begins.
Preparing your trial balance for a first-time audit
Companies facing their first independent audit often underestimate how much mapping and cleanup the opening balances need.
