SME ESG Guide for Taiwan: Getting Started in 3 Steps

Currently, TWSE-listed companies with paid-in capital of NT$2 billion or more are required to publish sustainability reports, and the FSC continues to expand the scope. Even if your company is not yet mandated, many brand owners and large enterprises already require supply chain partners to provide ESG data. A phased approach is recommended for SMEs: start with sustainability reporting to understand applicable frameworks and disclosure scope, then expand to carbon inventory as needed, reducing the upfront commitment.

Start with a free trial of the Syber reporting platform and expand incrementally, with transparent costs at each stage. Sustaihub recommends a 3-step phased approach: Step 1 — free Syber trial to understand reporting frameworks (zero cost); Step 2 — subscription to confirm disclosure scope and data gaps; Step 3 — consulting to complete report and verification. A platform-based approach keeps data in your account, significantly reducing year-over-year renewal costs.

Start with a 3-step path: Step 1 — free trial of the Syber reporting platform to understand applicable frameworks and disclosure items (about 1–2 weeks); Step 2 — confirm disclosure scope and data gaps to prepare for formal drafting; Step 3 — consulting to complete report writing and third-party verification. All data stays in your own platform account throughout, with no lock-in to any specific consultant.

Yes. Sustaihub has completed over 100 consulting cases with a 100% verification pass rate. The key is the integrated system-plus-consulting approach: the Syber system ensures report structure meets framework requirements, while consultants assist with report writing and verification preparation. Compared to pure consulting, a platform-based approach keeps data in your account so you do not start from scratch each year, lowering ongoing costs.
