In 1948, local governments only collected a single household tax from the public, but in the first half of 1950 following its removal to Taiwan, the Nationalist government would further impose defense donations, self-government fees for villages and boroughs, and citizen contributions, bringing in about NT $ 310 or about two months wages for a public servant, every six months.
1948 年，地方政府只向人民徵收單一戶稅，但是國府大舉播遷來台後，1950 年上半年度開始，除戶稅外，還強徵防衛捐、村里自治費、人民捐獻，每期半年約 310 元，相當於公務人員兩個月的薪資。
