TSMC Receives NT$168 Billion Boost for Overseas Expansion from Government Subsidies

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC) has received NT$167.6 billion (US$5.1 billion) in government subsidies from the US, Germany, Japan, and China during the first nine months of 2026, with nearly all of the support realized in the third quarter. These funds will facilitate the expansion of TSMC's overseas manufacturing network, including operations in Arizona, Dresden, Kumamoto, and Nanjing, and are primarily offsetting the cost of property, plants, and equipment.
