For your information, regarding the Ministry of Personnel's Order No. 10949780641 dated September 30, 2020.

Explanation:
I. In accordance with the Ministry of Personnel's Letter No. 10949780642 dated September 30, 2020,
and attached are copies of the original letter and its attachments, one for each.

II. Article 13, Paragraph 1 of the Civil Service Act (hereinafter referred to as the "Act") stipulates that civil servants shall not engage in commercial or speculative businesses;
and Article 14, Paragraph 1 stipulates that civil servants, unless otherwise provided by law, shall not concurrently hold other public offices or engage in other occupations;
furthermore, the Ministry of Personnel's Letter No. 1084876512 dated November 25, 2019, states that the term "occupation" in Article 14, Paragraph 1 of the Act includes licensed professions such as physicians, lawyers, and accountants,
as well as other matters that involve repeatedly engaging in the same type of activity;
and according to the interpretation of the Judicial Yuan Interpretation No. 71, civil servants are prohibited from engaging in any matter that interferes with the nature or dignity of their primary duties, regardless of whether it is commonly or habitually considered an occupation.
However, if the activity involves repeatedly engaging in the same type of activity that is of a public welfare nature, or if the activity is not "regular" and "continuous",
it does not fall under the scope of civil servants being prohibited from concurrently holding other public offices or engaging in other occupations as stipulated in Article 14, Paragraph 1 of the Act.
III. Currently, street performers are managed by local governments, and there are no specific regulations governing them. Civil servants performing or creating art in venues approved by local governments during their leisure time and receiving remuneration does not violate Article 13, Paragraph 1 of the Act.
However, if their creations are edible, they must comply with relevant food hygiene regulations.
For artistic creations that are not performed or created on-site, civil servants are still prohibited from engaging in activities such as setting up factories for production and sales, or agreeing with others to engage in commercial promotion and marketing under their own name.
Furthermore, civil servants should assess whether their artistic activities, based on their skills, fall under the scope of "occupation" as defined in Article 14, Paragraph 1 of the Act.
If such activities fall within the scope of licensed professions such as physicians, lawyers, or accountants, they are prohibited unless otherwise provided by law.

Whether acting as a street performer independently or in agreement with others, such activities are permissible only if they are not "regular" or "continuous" in nature and do not interfere with their primary duties or dignity.
IV. The Ministry of Personnel considers its electronic mail interpretation No. 1033851795 dated June 6, 2014, to be outdated and therefore has ceased its application as of September 30, 2020.
