New Taipei car rental — FAQ
Booking at least 2-4 weeks before your trip to New Taipei usually secures the best choice of cars and prices, especially for weekends and holidays. For peak periods like Lunar New Year or major festivals, try to reserve 6-8 weeks in advance, as popular vehicle classes and automatic transmissions can sell out quickly.
Most New Taipei car rental companies release the security deposit within 7-14 business days after you return the vehicle, provided there is no new damage or unpaid charges. Your bank may take extra time to show the funds. Choosing no-deposit / no-credit-card deals can help you avoid a blocked amount altogether.
The excess (deductible) is the maximum amount you pay if the car is damaged or stolen, even when insurance applies. In Taiwan, it commonly ranges around TWD 10,000–30,000, depending on car class and supplier. You can often reduce this amount substantially, sometimes close to zero, by purchasing additional coverage during booking or at the counter.
Most rental desks in New Taipei require a major credit card in the main driver's name for the security deposit. Some local suppliers may accept debit cards or cash, but conditions are stricter. To avoid a blocked deposit or card requirement, look specifically for no-deposit / no-credit-card deals when searching on our site.
Typical daily rates in New Taipei for a small to mid-size car start from about TWD 1,500–2,200, depending on season, rental length, and demand. Larger vehicles, SUVs, or premium models can cost significantly more. Prices usually include basic insurance and limited mileage, with extra options like GPS, Wi-Fi, or child seats charged separately.
At Taipei - Songshan Airport (TSA), car rentals are available from Hertz and Avis, giving travelers convenient on-site counters for picking up and returning vehicles directly at the airport terminal after their flights arrive or before departure.
Bookingcar lets you compare multiple New Taipei suppliers in one search, helping you spot low rates, clear rental conditions, and flexible mileage options. You can filter by transmission type, fuel policy, and deposit level, and see verified reviews. Our secure booking process and multilingual support make arranging your car straightforward before you arrive.
If you return your New Taipei rental car late, most companies charge an additional hourly fee or a full extra rental day, according to their tariff. Prolonged delays may incur penalties. Contact the rental operator as soon as you know you will be late; they may extend the contract and limit extra costs if informed in advance.
New Taipei offers many paid parking lots, such as Banqiao Station Parking, Xinzhuang Parking Lot, and the large Tamsui District car parks near the riverfront. You will also find municipal roadside spaces marked with blue or white lines, usually paid via parking meters or mobile apps, with time-based fees and clear signage in Chinese and English.
New Taipei is within Taiwan, and you generally cannot drive rental cars to other countries or by ferry to places like China or Japan. Some companies may restrict travel to outlying islands as well. Always declare your intended routes when booking, as using ferries or remote areas might require written permission and possibly an extra fee.
Speed limits are clearly posted, but as a general guide:
Urban streets: usually 50 km/h (sometimes 30–40 km/h in school or residential zones)
Rural roads: generally 60–70 km/h
Expressways: around 80 km/h
National freeways: typically 100–110 km/h, with lower limits in tunnels or busy sections
Always follow local signs, as limits can vary by road and weather conditions.

"We liked the clean car and smooth pick-up in New Taipei, and the price was fair. Still, the counter queue moved quite slowly, so we waited longer than expected."

"I rented in New Taipei for a weekend trip to the north coast. Staff were patient, spoke clear English, and helped me choose the right insurance. The car was nearly new, very clean, and return took less than ten minutes. Excellent value, will book here again."

"I travelled with a friend and we rented a car in New Taipei for five days. Booking confirmation came quickly and pick-up was well organised, with clear instructions in English. The car handled mountain roads and city traffic perfectly, and fuel use was low."
