Disney+ has revealed information regarding pricing for two of the markets it will be launching in during the second week of November — Taiwan and Hong Kong. These launches are tied to its international Disney Plus Day celebrations.

The service is set to launch on Friday, November 12 in Taiwan, and on Tuesday, November 16 in Hong Kong.

For subscribers in Taiwan, Disney+ will be priced at NT$270 a month (about $10 USD), and an annual subscription for the service will run NT $2790 (about $100 USD). For customers in Hong Kong, the price of Disney+ will be HK$73 ($8.97 USD) per month, while an annual subscription in that region will cost HK$738 ($95.60 USD).

We can’t wait to bring to consumers some of the world’s best stories from our iconic suite of brands and franchises, told by the world’s most talented creators and storytellers,” said Kerwin Lo, General Manager, The Walt Disney Company, Taiwan and Hong Kong.

In addition to the Asian launches, Disney Plus Day, November 12 — which marks the second anniversary of the launching of the service — will be a day that will include launches of new content on the service.
