Uber under fire: Taiwan's Investment Commission said earlier this month it may order Uber to exit the market.
TAIPEI: Taiwan has asked Uber Technologies to pay a sales tax bill estimated by local media to be up to about US$6.4mil (RM25.6mil), the government said on Friday, as a decision looms on whether the global ride-hailing service may be ordered to leave the island.
Taiwan's Investment Commission said earlier this month it may order Uber to exit the market, saying the company misrepresented its business as an internet-based technology platform rather than a transportation service. A decision is due by the end of August.
