Saisiyat does have an orthography, but few people use it. The government does not promote the use of Saisiyat language. Mandarin Chinese is used in almost all domains, especially the formal ones. Only some word lists, oral texts, and sketch grammars are published for linguistic analyses. No dictionary.
