Airport Transportation in Taipei
Pre-booked private transportation takes you directly from Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport to your hotel, resort or vacation rental.
After immigration, baggage claim and customs, continue outside the terminal to the meeting area named in your confirmation. Your vehicle is reserved only for the passengers on your reservation: unlike a shared shuttle, it makes no extra hotel stops for other travelers, and the price is per vehicle, not per person.
Our Taipei airport transportation takes you from Taoyuan to hotels around Taipei Main Station, Zhongshan, Ximending and the Xinyi District, to Banqiao in New Taipei, and to Taoyuan, Zhongli and the Taoyuan High Speed Rail station.
Taipei Airport Transfers
Taipei airport transfers start in the arrivals hall of your terminal, Terminal 1 or Terminal 2, where your driver waits with a name sign after baggage claim and customs. We track your flight, so the pickup follows your real landing time, and the price is fixed per vehicle before you fly, from a sedan for two to a van for a family or group with luggage.
Each transfer goes door to door to your hotel, apartment or home in Taipei, New Taipei or Taoyuan, or to the Taoyuan HSR station for your train. Going on to Hsinchu, Jiufen or Yilan? Enter your address in the booking form to see whether a transfer is offered.
Taipei Airport Shuttle
Our Taipei airport shuttle is a private van for your party only, not a shared coach that stops along the way into the city. It leaves as soon as you have your bags, with room for suitcases and strollers, and suits families and groups heading to Taipei.
Landing at Taipei Airport
Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (TPE) is the main international airport for Taipei, in Dayuan District of Taoyuan City. Flights use two terminals, Terminal 1 and Terminal 2, joined by a free Skytrain; China Airlines and Starlux use both, depending on the route. If you land at a Terminal 3 North Concourse gate, you walk back into Terminal 2 for immigration and baggage claim.
After immigration you collect your bags and pass customs, using the green channel if you have nothing to declare. You come out into the arrivals hall on the first floor (1F) of your terminal, where pre-booked drivers meet passengers and cars collect them at the numbered pickup points along the curb.
Taiwan is on UTC+8 all year, with no daylight saving time, and uses the New Taiwan dollar.
Visa-free entry for many
Many nationalities can visit Taiwan visa-free for a limited stay; others need a visa. Check the rules for your passport with the Bureau of Consular Affairs before you fly.
Online arrival card
Every international arrival completes the online arrival card (TWAC) before landing; you can submit it in the three days before you arrive.
Check your airport
This page is for Taoyuan International Airport (TPE). Some flights to Taipei land at Songshan Airport (TSA) inside the city instead, so check the code on your ticket.
Short curbside stops
Stopping time at the arrivals curb is short and enforced by camera, so walk out with your driver once you have your bags rather than waiting outside first.

- 2
Meet your representative
At the meeting point in your confirmation. Check the company name before getting in.
- 3
Go straight there
No other stops, no other passengers.
Meet in the arrivals hall
Each terminal has its own arrivals hall on the first floor (1F). Pre-booked drivers meet passengers there after baggage claim and customs, so check whether you land at Terminal 1 or Terminal 2.
Numbered pickup points
Cars collect passengers at numbered pickup points along the curb outside arrivals. Stopping time is short and enforced, so walk out with your driver once you have your bags.
Don't accept a ride from someone claiming to know your booking. Check the company name and reservation details before getting in.

Where will my driver meet me at Taoyuan Airport?
In the arrivals hall on the first floor (1F) of your terminal, Terminal 1 or Terminal 2, holding a sign with your name, after baggage claim and customs. Check your terminal on your ticket, because China Airlines and Starlux use both.
How far is Taoyuan Airport from Taipei?
Taoyuan Airport is about 40 km (25 miles) west of central Taipei, and the drive usually takes 40 to 60 minutes depending on traffic. Taoyuan and Zhongli are closer, about 20 to 30 minutes away.
Is this page for Taoyuan Airport or Songshan Airport?
This page books rides from Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (TPE), where most international flights to Taipei land. Songshan Airport (TSA) is a separate airport inside the city, so check the code on your ticket.
Can you take me to Xinyi District and Taipei 101?
Yes. We drive to hotels and apartments in the Xinyi District, around Taipei 101 and across central Taipei, including Zhongshan, Da'an and Ximending.
Can you take me to Taipei Main Station?
Yes. We drive you to Taipei Main Station or a hotel nearby. Give us your train time when you book if you are connecting there.
Can you take me to Banqiao, Taoyuan or Zhongli?
Yes. We drive to Banqiao and other districts of New Taipei, and to hotels and homes in Taoyuan and Zhongli near the airport.
Can you take me to the Taoyuan High Speed Rail station?
Yes. We drive you to the Taoyuan HSR station for trains south to Taichung, Tainan and Kaohsiung. Give us your train time when you book.
Can you take me to Jiufen, Hsinchu or Yilan?
Jiufen is on the northeast coast, Hsinchu is south along the west coast and Yilan is across the mountains to the east. Enter your address in the booking form to see whether a transfer is offered; if it is not, contact us before you fly.
Do you drive to apartments and vacation rentals in Taipei?
Yes. Give the full street address, including the lane and alley numbers used in Taipei addresses, plus the building name and any entrance details. Where a lane is too narrow for a car, your driver stops at the nearest point a car can reach.
Do you pick up late-night and early-morning flights?
Yes. Your pickup is set for your flight's arrival time, day or night, which helps when the Airport MRT has stopped running for the night.
Should I buy transportation from people offering rides in the arrivals hall?
There is no need. Booking ahead gives you a confirmed vehicle and a meeting point before you land. If someone approaches you in arrivals, check the company name against your confirmation before getting in.
What happens if my flight is delayed or canceled?
We monitor the flight on your reservation, so your driver waits for the actual landing. If your flight number, date or airline changes, or your flight is canceled, update it in Manage your booking so the pickup can be moved.
Can I book a ride back to Taoyuan Airport?
Yes. Book a one-way departure or a round trip from your hotel or home, and give your flight number, departure time and terminal, so the pickup is set for check-in and security.
What do I need to enter Taiwan at Taoyuan Airport?
Many nationalities can visit Taiwan visa-free for a limited stay; others need a visa. Every international arrival completes the online arrival card (TWAC), which you can submit in the three days before you land.
Is Airport Transportation the same as Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport?
