Essentials

City
Taipei is the capital of Taiwan, in a basin between Yangmingshan and the mountains to the south. 6
Population
Taipei City had 2,424,159 registered residents in July 2026, and New Taipei City had 4,039,299 at the end of May 2026, about 6.46 million together. 1 11 17
Internet Speed
Ookla's September 2026 median for Taipei was 263.69 Mbps down on fixed broadband (119.28 Mbps up) and 129.87 Mbps down on mobile. 2
Currency & Banking
New Taiwan dollar (TWD, NT$), with the Bank of Taiwan spot mid used here at NT$32.445 per US dollar on 19 October 2026. On 22 October 2026 the non-business-hours board showed USD spot buying 32.435 and selling 32.585, and euro spot buying 36.105 and selling 36.705. 12
Tap Water
Taipei Water Department says its tap water is safe to drink. Most people still boil it to cut the chlorine, and older buildings can have poorly kept tanks or pipes. 4 7
Power
110 V, 60 Hz, plug types A and B. 3
SIM Card
Chunghwa Telecom's 4G Traveller SIM 30-day pass is NT$1,000 for 720 hours of unlimited data, with NT$430 of domestic voice credit. A 7-day 4G pass on the same table is NT$500. 5
Accommodation
Wikivoyage puts a budget double under NT$2,500 a night, mid-range at NT$2,500 to NT$5,000, and a splurge at NT$5,000 or more. Short visits cluster around Taipei Main Station and Ximending; longer stays often use Xindian or Yonghe, still on the metro. 6
Cashless Friendly
An adult EasyCard is NT$100 with no stored value included, sold at 7-Eleven, FamilyMart, Hi-Life and OK Mart, and holds up to NT$10,000 for the metro, city buses and convenience stores. Tipping is not customary; a hotel porter is the usual exception at about NT$50 a bag. 28 6 7
Short Term Rentals
Hotels and hostels around Taipei Main Station and Ximending cover short stays. Wikivoyage's budget band for a standard double is under NT$2,500 a night. 6
Budget Accommodation
Budget rooms sit around Taipei Main Station and in Ximending. Wikivoyage's budget band for a standard double is under NT$2,500 a night. 6
Best Area to Stay for Tourists
Ximending, for shops, food and the Red House bars, or Zhongzheng beside Taipei Main Station if the priority is the airport train and the high-speed rail. 6
Best Area to Stay for Digital Nomads
Da'an and Xinyi, the east-side cafe and office belt. JustCo Dian Shih is at No. 206, Section 1, Keelung Road, Xinyi, from NT$6,000 a desk a month before VAT. 6 8

Transportation

Best Taxi/Ride App
Uber runs in Taipei. Wikivoyage says only licensed taxi drivers may take Uber trips, so the fare matches a metered taxi, and that it avoids the language problem of street hails. 6
Bike/Scooter Rental
YouBike 2.0 members who start in Taipei get a NT$10 city subsidy on each rental, covering the first 30 minutes; after four hours it is NT$20 per 30 minutes until eight hours and NT$40 after that. One-time credit-card rentals skip the subsidy and pre-authorise NT$3,000, and YouBike 2.0E is NT$20 per 30 minutes for the first two hours. 9
Best Beach Nearby
Fulong Beach is the seawater bathing beach in Gongliao, New Taipei, on the northeast coast. 41
Top Regional Airline
China Airlines and EVA Air, and their subsidiaries, offer in-town check-in at Taipei Main Station between six and three hours before departure. 6
Top International Airline
EVA Air's English homepage was selling Taipei-Delhi flights. China Airlines is the other full-service carrier with downtown check-in at Taipei Main Station. 32 6
Highway Access
A car is a poor way to move inside the city: traffic is frantic and parking is scarce and expensive. Airport express buses join the freeway toward Taoyuan. 6
Main Train/Transit Hub
Taipei Main Station, 3 Beiping West Road, Zhongzheng, is the hub for Taiwan Railways, Taiwan High Speed Rail, Taipei Metro and the Taoyuan Airport MRT. The airport express takes about 38 minutes and is NT$160, or NT$150 with EasyCard. 6 34
Public Transport Passes
The TPASS cross-city pass for Keelung, Taipei, New Taipei and Taoyuan is NT$1,200, and YouBike 2.0 rides in those four cities can be covered by that pass. Wikivoyage lists one-way metro fares at NT$20 to NT$65. 13 9 6
Regional Travel
Taiwan High Speed Rail from Taipei to Zuoying (Kaohsiung) is NT$1,490 reserved standard and NT$2,440 reserved business, or NT$1,445 non-reserved; the Taipei-Banqiao hop on the same table is NT$40 standard and business is not sold. From 2 February 2026, weekday train 1985 leaves Taipei at 22:10 and reaches Zuoying at 23:45 (95 minutes). 10 14

Health and Wellness

Best Hospital
Taiwan Adventist Hospital, No. 424, Section 2, Bade Road, Songshan, runs an International Healthcare Center with English and Japanese and direct billing for many overseas insurers. Main line 886-2-2771-8151. 15 33
Gyms & Fitness Centers
Datong Sports Center, 51 Dalong Street, Datong, is a city sports centre open 06:00 to 22:00, closed on Lunar New Year's Eve and the first day of the lunar year. Its table-tennis room is NT$100 an hour. 30

Food and Drink

Best Local Dish to Try
Beef noodle soup, in a soy-braised hongshao bowl or a clear qingdun broth. Wikivoyage names Yongkang Beef Noodle and Lao Zhang on Yongkang Street, and Lin Tung Fong in Zhongshan. 6
Vegan/Vegetarian Options
Minder Vegetarian is a buffet chain; Wikivoyage lists branches at Taipei Main Station 2F and in the Eslite stores on Songgao Road and Dunhua South Road. Neighbourhood vegetarian buffets are often charged by weight, about NT$75 to NT$120 for a plate, and many Buddhist kitchens skip garlic and onion. 6
Best Dessert Spots
Aiyu jelly is the usual night-market dessert, sold at Raohe Street Night Market in Songshan and Ningxia Night Market in Datong. 6 42 43
Affordable Shopping Spots
Ximending for youth fashion, and Guanghua Digital Plaza in Zhongzheng for computers and parts. The Jianguo weekend jade, flower and handicraft markets in Da'an run on weekends until 18:00. 6 44
Bar/Nightlife Area
Xinyi for the large clubs, including ATT 4 FUN opposite Taipei 101, and the Red House in Ximending for the gay-bar cluster. The Taiwan Beer bar at the Taipei Brewery in Zhongzheng pours the local lager. 6 52
Local Brewery
The Taiwan Beer bar at Taipei Brewery in Zhongzheng pours the local lager. 6

Business

Studio Purchase Price (City Center)
In Q1 2026 the Taipei Land Administration's standard-home unit price in Da'an, the dearest district it named, was NT$942,500 per ping, about NT$285,100 per square metre (1 ping = 3.305785 square metres). A 40 square metre studio at that rate is about NT$11.40 million, and the series is not split by bedrooms. 16
Studio Purchase Price (Outside City)
New Taipei's citywide residential average was NT$455,000 per ping, about NT$137,600 per square metre, on actual-price filings from May 2025 to April 2026 (Yungching, from the MOI register, excluding homes under two years old, first floors and related-party sales). A 40 square metre unit at that rate is about NT$5.51 million, and the series is not split by bedrooms. 17
1-Bedroom Purchase Price (City Center)
Using the Q1 2026 Da'an standard-home price of about NT$285,100 per square metre, a 60 square metre apartment is about NT$17.11 million. Taipei does not publish that series by bedroom count. 16
1-Bedroom Purchase Price (Outside City)
Using the New Taipei May 2025-April 2026 average of about NT$137,600 per square metre, a 60 square metre apartment is about NT$8.26 million. Not split by bedrooms. 17
2-Bedroom Purchase Price (City Center)
Using the Q1 2026 Da'an standard-home price of about NT$285,100 per square metre, an 80 square metre apartment is about NT$22.81 million. Not split by bedrooms. 16
2-Bedroom Purchase Price (Outside City)
Using the New Taipei May 2025-April 2026 average of about NT$137,600 per square metre, an 80 square metre apartment is about NT$11.01 million. Not split by bedrooms. 17
Corporate Tax
20% on taxable income over NT$120,000, while income up to NT$120,000 is exempt. Undistributed earnings can draw a further 5% profit-retention tax. 20
Dividend Withholding Tax
21% on dividends paid to a non-treaty non-resident. Treaties commonly cut that to 10% or 15%. 21
Tax System
Residents, generally 183 days in the calendar year, pay progressive tax on Taiwan-source income and can owe 20% income basic tax when basic income exceeds NT$7.5 million, which pulls in foreign-source income of NT$1 million or more. A non-resident present 91 to 182 days pays a flat 18% on Taiwan taxable salary; under 90 days, 18% withholding applies to salary from a Taiwan-registered employer and pay from an employer outside Taiwan is exempt. 18 19
Highest Income Tax Bracket
40% on 2026 resident net taxable income over NT$5,190,000. 18
VAT
5% business tax (VAT) on most sales of goods and services. Banks and insurers pay 5% gross business-receipts tax on core revenue instead. 22
Controlled Foreign Company (CFC) Rules
Yes. CFC rules have applied since 1 January 2023, so qualifying offshore company profits can be taxed in Taiwan before they are paid out. 23
Property Tax
House tax on an owner-occupied home is 1.2%, or 1% for a single self-occupied home under the local value cap, if nobody rents it out and household registration is there. Other non-owner-occupied homes use a national holding count at a statutory 2% to 4.8%, and land value tax is 1% to 5.5% of the assessed land value. 24 22
Property Transaction Tax
Land value increment tax on the assessed land-value gain is 20% to 40%, or 10% in the special self-use case. House-and-land transaction income tax, for property acquired from 2016, is 45% if a resident sells within two years, then 35%, 20% and 15% at two, five and ten years, with a qualifying self-use home exempting the first NT$4 million and taxing the rest at 10%; a non-resident pays 45% within two years and 35% after that. 22 25
Attractive Tax System for Digital Nomads
A qualifying Employment Gold Card holder can exclude half of salary above NT$3 million for five tax years. The digital nomad visitor visa, for visa-exempt nationalities, asks for US$40,000 a year if you are 30 or older, or US$20,000 if you are 20 to 29, plus insurance, and that page does not set a tax rate; resident tax still tops out at 40% above NT$5,190,000. 26 27 18
