Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Taipei?

Gross bookings per Taipei listing averaged NT$521,693 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Taiwan average: NT$351,338), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Taipei listing brings in NT$85,900 in December, its best month, and NT$41,700 in September, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 30% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 3.4 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn NT$124,000+ a month, about 2.9 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn NT$75,200 or more, roughly NT$32,000 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about NT$43,200 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn NT$21,800 or less, about half of the median.

These are monthly figures for listings active in each month. The annual average above also counts listings that operated for only part of the year, so it runs below twelve times these figures.

December earns about twice what September does

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Taipei Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Taipei Airbnb took in NT$521,693 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about NT$30,200 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money. A listing in the top quarter leaves about NT$53,000 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the NT$33,800 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about NT$33,000 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about NT$26,100 a month.

These amounts come before housing costs. Where the mortgage or rent is less each month, the difference is profit; a home owned outright keeps it all after property tax, home insurance and any building or condo fees.

How Taipei's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Taipei listings are booked on 77% or more of their nights, against 56% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of NT$2,395 adds about NT$23,900 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge NT$3,925 a night or more, against a median of NT$2,395. That is a separate ranking from the busiest quarter, so the two marks don't multiply into one listing's takings. For the average listing, a 10% higher rate on the nights it already books adds about NT$48,800 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, December brings the average listing about NT$85,900, against NT$41,700 in September, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Taipei listings average 4.76 stars, and 29% carry Airbnb's Guest Favorite badge, which guests can filter for.

What a listing keeps comes down to the figures this page measures: nightly rate, nights booked and the months it's open. A listing at the top-quarter mark takes in about NT$75,700 a month, against NT$43,500 for the average one.

Occupancy

What Is the Airbnb Occupancy Rate in Taipei?

Taipei listings were booked on 50% of the nights they were open over the past year, 15 percentage points above the Taiwan average (35%). In a typical year, occupancy climbs to 65% in December and falls to 48% in August.

The busiest tenth of listings are booked about three times as often as the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) are booked 88%+ of open nights, 32 points above the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) fill 77% or more, roughly five nights a week.
  • Typical properties (median) fill about 56% of open nights.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) fill 30% or less, under three nights a week.

December is usually the busiest month in Taipei, August the quietest

Share of open nights booked, by month, September 2024 to August 2026

The 12-month rate of 50% averages each listing's whole year, slow months included; each month here counts only the listings booked in it.

Nightly rates

How Much Does an Airbnb Cost per Night in Taipei?

The average nightly rate in Taipei, known as ADR (average daily rate), was NT$3,323 over the past year, about 8% below the Taiwan average of NT$3,600. In a typical year, rates peak in December at about NT$3,645 and bottom out in September at about NT$2,825.

Prices span a wide range: the top 10% charge about four times the rate of the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) charge NT$6,315+ a night, about 2.6 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) charge NT$3,925 or more, about NT$1,500 above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) charge about NT$2,395 a night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) charge NT$1,555 or less, about two-thirds of the median.

December rates run 29% above September's

Average nightly rate (ADR), by month, September 2024 to August 2026

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, NT$3,100. The 12-month ADR of NT$3,323 averages each listing's own rate across its whole year; the monthly points average listings month by month, so the two differ.

What Is the RevPAR for Airbnb in Taipei?

RevPAR, or revenue per available night, divides a listing's income by every night it was open to book, so it rises with both price and bookings. In Taipei it averaged NT$1,730 over the past year, from about NT$1,390 in a typical September to about NT$2,770 in a typical December.

Per open night, by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn NT$3,540+ per open night, about 2.7 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn NT$2,220 or more, about NT$900 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about NT$1,320 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn NT$724 or less, about 55% of the median.

December RevPAR is about twice September's

Revenue per open night (RevPAR), by month, September 2024 to August 2026

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Taipei

Airbnb-style stays in an ordinary Taipei home are illegal; legal nightly stays need a hotel registration (NT$5,000 fee) or a minsu in a few listed areas, and fines run up to NT$2,000,000.

None of the 3,314 active listings in Taipei display a registration, permit or license number. That doesn't mean no rules apply: some places don't ask hosts to show a number on the listing, and listing data doesn't capture every scheme.

The permit, operating limits and taxes on a stay are set out in the Taipei Airbnb regulations, each rule linked to its official source and checked October 2026.

Airbnb Amenities Linked to Higher Revenue in Taipei

Listings in Taipei with a children's playroom earned about twice as much a year, on average, as those without: NT$983,000 against NT$517,000. The gap is smaller for a home movie theater (about 75% more) and outdoor furniture (about 60% more). Bigger, professionally run homes tend to carry more amenities, so these gaps reflect the kind of listing as much as the feature itself.

How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Taipei?

The Taipei Airbnb regulations set out the permit, its cost, the taxes on a stay and the operating limits, each linked to its official source.

Yes, when it's run well. The average Taipei Airbnb grossed NT$521,693 in the 12 months to September 2026, 48% above the national average of NT$351,338. Run by its owner, with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, NT$361,993 a year (about NT$30,200 a month) is left before the mortgage or rent. A home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit, and a listing at the top-quarter mark leaves about NT$53,000 a month. Check a specific home in the Airbnb calculator.
