What is likely to happen to USD/TWD in October 2025

Quick takeaway and suggested action.

Right now, the US dollar is in a stronger position against the Taiwan dollar, partly because of rising uncertainty around US interest rates and investor caution in Taiwan.

Over the next month, expect the USD to TWD exchange rate to trade between 30.00 and 30.75.

If you’re planning to send money from the US to Taiwan, you’re in a relatively good spot for now, but keep an eye on Fed announcements and Taiwan’s economic news.

If the USD weakens in November, you might get less value for your money.

USD to TWD: Where It Stands

Let’s look at where the exchange rate is right now.

As of the end of September 2025, 1 US dollar is trading at around 30.45 Taiwanese dollars (TWD).

This rate has changed a lot in recent months. While the Taiwan dollar was strong earlier in 2024, it has now given back some of those gains.

In fact, TWD is down more than 7% for the year against the US dollar.

This makes the US dollar more expensive when converted into Taiwanese dollars right now compared to earlier this year.

What’s Driving USD to TWD?

Why is the exchange rate changing? Here's what's happening.

A few key factors are pushing the USD to TWD rate up and down:

  • The US Federal Reserve (the U.S. central bank) is sending mixed signals on whether it will cut interest rates. If the Fed delays cutting rates, the dollar stays strong, pushing up the USD to TWD exchange rate.

  • Taiwan’s currency is being pulled in both directions. It’s helped by strong exports in technology, especially related to artificial intelligence (AI). But foreign investors have recently been pulling money out of Taiwanese stocks, which weakens the TWD.

  • Inflation in the US is not dropping as quickly as hoped, so markets are holding off on expecting fast rate cuts. That’s giving some strength back to the USD.

  • Overall, Taiwan’s economy is still solid, but currency traders are cautious because of global uncertainty.

What Do the Charts Say?

Checking the price movement can show us what to expect next.

The technical charts suggest that the USD to TWD exchange rate could stay in a range for the next few weeks. Two important levels to watch:

  • Support (lower level where the rate may stop falling): 30.00 TWD/USD

  • Resistance (upper level where the rate may stop rising): 30.75 TWD/USD

If the USD goes above 30.75 TWD, we could see more strength in the dollar.

If it falls below 30.00 TWD, the Taiwan dollar may be making a comeback.

What to Watch Next Month

Key events and trends to pay attention to in August 2025.

  • US inflation data: If inflation cools, the Fed may cut rates sooner, which would weaken the US dollar.

  • Federal Reserve speeches or announcements: Hints of future interest rate decisions will impact the USD.

  • Taiwan’s stock market and export data: Strong numbers can attract foreign money, strengthening the TWD.

  • Global market mood: Ongoing tensions in global markets or tech sector trends (especially in AI) could influence fund flows.

Risks Ahead

What could cause surprise moves?

  • If the US delays rate cuts again, the dollar could suddenly strengthen, taking USD to TWD past key levels.

  • Political or economic instability in Asia could make investors nervous and pull money out of Taiwan, weakening its currency.

  • A major drop in Taiwan’s tech exports could also drag the TWD down further.

What This Means If You’re Sending USD to TWD Abroad

Here’s how this affects people moving money between the US and Taiwan:

  • The Taiwan dollar is weaker than it was earlier this year, so sending US dollars to Taiwan now gives you more TWD. For example, sending 1,000 USD today will give more local currency than it would have in April 2024.

  • If the USD weakens again next month, you will get fewer TWD for every US dollar. So, if you’re planning to send money soon, doing it while the USD stays strong might be a good idea.

  • Watch the 30.75 level, if the rate breaks above this, even better exchange rates for sending USD to Taiwan might come shortly after.

USD to TWD history

Taiwan and the US have had trade ties for decades. The US dollar was established in the 1800s while the new Taiwan dollar was created in 1949.

At the time, it replaced the old Taiwan dollar, which was plagued by hyperinflation of the time.

Today, Taiwan has emerged as an economic powerhouse because of its strong industrial base.

It is mostly known for its semiconductor industry, which is the backbone of the modern economy.

In terms of market cap, Taiwan’s Semiconductor Manufacturing Company is the second-biggest semiconductor manufacturer in the world after Nvidia.

It has become one of the most important companies in the world because it innovated the fabless foundry concept in 1987 and manufactures most of the chips we use today.

The US and Taiwan have strong economic relations. Data from the Commerce Department showed that the total trade volume of the two countries stands at over $120 billion.

The US exports to the country are worth about $47.3 billion while imports are worth over $86 billion. This leaves the total trade deficit at about $40 billion.

The USD/TWD has been a relatively stable currency over the years. It peaked at 40.59 in 1985 and then reached an all-time low of 24.50 in 1992.

As shown below, since 1999, the pair has remained between the support at 27.27 and the resistance at 35.25.

This is a relatively small standard deviation compared to other currencies.

Its stability is likely because the USD/TWD is not a popular pair among speculators.

Therefore, its price action is mostly determined by supply and demand dynamics, which are affected by the overall trade volume between the two countries.
