For passengers who frequently travel across Taichung, Changhua, Nantou, or Miaoli by TR, it is recommended to purchase the Central Taiwan TPASS.
Each electronic card can only be bound to one TPASS plan at a time. If the current TPASS has been activated and is still valid, it cannot be upgraded or replaced until it expires.

After purchasing your TPASS, please visit the designated registration section on the card issuer’s official website and complete your information (including ID number, date of birth, mobile number, and TPASS card number). Once you receive confirmation from the card issuer, or after three days, you may visit any of the four major convenience store chains. Ask the store clerk to scan your card to collect the NT$100 top-up subsidy provided by the Highway Bureau. Each person is eligible to claim this subsidy only once. For cardholders who have completed registration, the deadline for claiming the NT$100 top-up subsidy will follow the announcement made by the respective card issuer.
Yes. After the TPASS expires, you can continue to use the same electronic card to ride the metro, buses, Taiwan Railway (TR), and YouBike. However, fares will then be deducted from the stored value on the electronic card.
The TPASS is for personal use only and cannot be shared. If it is found to be used by multiple people, the TPASS will be deactivated, and no refund will be granted.
Please visit the website of the electronic card company that issued your TPASS.

When tapping your card at bus, MRT, or Taiwan Railway fare gates or card readers, the display screen will show the TPASS validity period.
- After purchasing a TPASS, its validity period is 30 consecutive days starting from the first day of use (the activation date is not affected by the time of activation on that day). For example, if the first day of use is July 1, 2023, the TPASS will remain valid until July 30, 2023.
- "Expiration Time on the Last Valid Day" day is based on the original end time of each transportation service. For instance, if the local city buses service on July 30 operates until 1:00 a.m. the following day (July 31) or until the last scheduled departure, that is considered the valid end time.
Yes. The TPASS must be activated within 30 days of purchase. If not activated within this period, it cannot be used and must be refunded through designated sales channels.
- The electronic card must first be registered as a member and linked on the YouBike official website to enjoy the first 30 minutes of free riding.
- Please note that TPASS cannot be activated through the card sensor area on public bicycles.
When using a TPASS, please follow the tapping procedures required by each transport system. If a TPASS becomes locked due to incorrect tapping, it can be automatically unlocked the next time it is used on Taichung Metro, local city buses, or highway buses. If it becomes locked while using Taiwan Railway Station (TR), please visit a TR station to have it unlocked. No stored-value balance will be deducted when unlocking.
When taking the Taichung MRT, please enter through the TPASS-designated gates. Always tap your card on the reader of each transport mode when boarding, alighting, entering, exiting, or renting/returning a public bicycle to avoid your card being locked.
After purchasing a TPASS with your electronic card, simply tap the card on the reader of the metro, bus, or Taiwan Railway (TR) fare gate the first time you travel. This will automatically activate the TPASS. (Please note that the TPASS cannot be activated through the card sensor area on public bicycles.)
