Where to rent a car in Taoyuan?
The easiest place to find rental cars in Taoyuan is right at the airport. The cars are a bit more expensive than in the city center, but it’s much more convenient to get it here – you don’t have to carry your luggage around and there’s no need to pay for a taxi. Plus, the people who work at the car rental agencies at Taoyuan Airport will be able to serve you in English.
Requirements to rent a car in Taiwan
- You will need to show your international driver’s license as well as your normal (state or province) driver’s license.
- Apart from that, all you need is a detailed map of Taiwan and good driving skills – Taiwanese drivers (and scooter riders) drive like maniacs!
Info about Car Hire in Taoyuan Airport
There are two terminals at Taoyuan International Airport and you’ll find companies to rent a car or a van at both of them.

The main company there is called Ching Bing and it’s opened from 5:00am until midnight. You can reserve a rental car in Taoyuan Airport at this phone number: +886-3-3983979
In Terminal 2, the car rental company is called Easy Rent and you’ll find it on the north side of the arrival area. You can hire a car or van there from 9:00am until midnight. Call them at +886-3-3983636 to book your car in advance.
One thing I like about Easy Rent is they have car rental offices all over Taiwan in the following major cities: Taipei, Taichung, Kaohsiung, Hsinchu, Chiayi, Tainan, Hualien, and Taitung. So if you have to rent your car in Taoyuan and leave it at another destination, it’s not a problem and it shouldn’t cost you too much extra.
