Important information about Taipei City car rentals

Taipei, the capital city of Taiwan, is located in the north of the island with the Xindian River to the south and the Tamsuie River to the west. As a major East Asian center, two airports service travelers into and out of Taipei – Taoyuan and Song Shan. The bustling city is home to many historical sites and cultural attractions, including museums, performing arts venues, markets, temples, and more. Traffic in the city is heavy and a bit chaotic, so public transportation is preferred by most residents and visitors. No trip to Taipei is complete without experiencing the natural beauty and small towns that lie just beyond the city limits. Car rentals in Taipei are the best way to access these sites. With nearly 20 locations throughout the city, you can easily find a car rental in Taipei to suit your needs, whether you are in the market for an economy car or a luxury car rental. Cheap car rentals in Taipei are abundant, so you can find a car to suit any budget.

Is it worthwhile to rent a car while visiting Taipei?

Within the city of Taipei, public transportation is the best method of transportation. There are trains and buses to take you everywhere you want to go, and it is a very walkable city. However, for the complete experience, a Taipei car rental will take you beyond the city and into the surrounding areas. The landscape outside the city limits offers national parks, hot springs, lively small towns, and historic sites that enrich your trip with cultural experiences from the region as a whole. Just about an hour from Taipei, a day trip to the old Japanese mining town of Jiufen is a must. Also within an hour of the city, Yehliu Geopark and Yangmingshan National Park offer adventures in nature. If visiting Yangmingshan, we recommend going on a weekday when all roads are open and the park is most easily accessible. Public transportation is available to many of these sites but if you are seeking flexibility in your plans, a Taipei car rental is the best option.

What laws should I keep in mind while driving in Taipei?

In Taiwan, drivers drive on the right side of the road. The rules of the road are similar to most other industrialized countries; seatbelts are mandatory and drinking and driving is illegal. Be sure to check signs for local speed limits and other traffic regulations. It is illegal to turn right on red lights in Taiwan. As you prepare for your Taipei rental car, check local government sources for a complete and updated list of traffic rules and regulations.

Will I need a special driver’s license or permit to drive a rental car in Taipei if I’m visiting from another country?

All foreign drivers are required to carry a valid International Drivers Permit (IDP), which allows for 30 days of driving throughout Taiwan. In the U.S., IDPs are available through the American Automobile Association (AAA). To continue driving after the first 30 days, you must contact the Motor Vehicles Office in Taipei to extend your IDP or to secure a permanent Taiwan driver’s license. A valid passport is also required for car rentals by foreigners in Taipei.
