About PT. Bank Rakyat Indonesia (Persero) Tbk, Taipei Branch
PT Bank Rakyat Indonesia (Persero) Tbk, widely known as BRI, opened its Taipei branch in August 2025, expanding one of Indonesia's largest state-owned banks into Taiwan and East Asia for the first time. The branch was established specifically to serve Taiwan's Indonesian community, which includes an estimated 360,000 Indonesian migrant workers, and it operates from a ground-floor unit at No. 166, Section 3, Nanjing East Road in Taipei's Zhongshan District. Since opening, the branch has offered a standard range of banking services including savings and deposit accounts, loans, remittance transfers back to Indonesia, trade finance, and treasury services. It has since introduced two additional products aimed at its core customer base: BRImo Taiwan, a mobile banking application that lets Indonesian workers in Taiwan handle everyday transactions and send money home without visiting a branch in person, and BRI Taipei Future Saving, a Taiwan dollar time deposit program offered with 12, 24, or 36 month installment terms. Customer reviews collected since the branch opened describe staff who are able to assist in Bahasa Indonesia, which reviewers repeatedly point to as a significant advantage over Taiwanese banks for migrant workers who may not be fluent in Mandarin, particularly for tasks like opening an account or setting up salary deposits for the first time. Reviewers also mention the branch's ability to process certain overseas money transfers without requiring a passbook. The branch has accumulated a strong average rating from customer reviews, with visitors most often praising the welcoming, homely atmosphere and describing individual staff members by name for their patience with first-time or non-English-speaking customers. Weekday mornings are generally recommended for anyone wanting a quicker visit, since the branch can see longer queues around lunch hours and on paydays common among migrant worker contracts. The branch can be reached by phone or through its own website for account information.
