Taiwan competed under the designated name "Chinese Taipei" at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. Originally scheduled to take place from 24 July to 9 August 2020, the Games were postponed to 23 July to 8 August 2021, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] It was also the nation's tenth consecutive appearance at the Summer Olympics.
Taiwan rewards their Olympic gold medalists with 20 million New Taiwan dollars (US $716,000) and additionally rewards their athletes who finish from second to seventh or eighth in their events with proportionate trickled down amounts.[2]
