Taipei

Taiwan

Taiwan's capital fills a basin ringed by green hills, mixing night markets and lanes left from the Japanese decades with a metro that prices every trip by the distance travelled.

How tickets work here

Taipei Metro charges by the distance travelled, not by a flat fare or a zone. Every journey is priced from the station you enter to the station you leave, rising in steps, so two trips on the same line can cost different amounts and there is no single "ticket price" to quote. TRTC publishes the full table as a PDF linked from its fare page. Multi-day passes for visitors do exist, but the operator does not publish their prices anywhere — the figures you will find come from resellers, and this catalog does not carry a price from a reseller. Because a journey's cost depends on a distance this calculator has no way to ask for, Tramfox does not quote Taipei.

Current prices are on the operator’s own page.
