On 18 August 2026 ROC Year 115 the Taiwanese Tax Bureau under the Ministry of Finance announced amendments to the Vehicle Tax Collection Rules partial revision. The regulatory update establishes that electric vehicles EVs meeting specified technical criteria may be released free of vehicle acquisition tax and associated levies from the point of manufacture or at the time of import clearance effective 1 January 2027 ROC Year 116. This measure forms part of Taiwans broader green transportation policy framework aiming to reduce carbon emissions and incentivize adoption of zero-emission vehicles through favorable tax treatment at the border and manufacturing gate in alignment with international best practices for EV tax incentives.
