Taipei, Taiwan – Bolt has launched its ride-hailing service in Taiwan, introducing a new option for people in Taipei to move around the city and earn. 

Operating in more than 600 cities worldwide, the company brings global expertise tailored to local needs.

Its entry marks its first in East Asia and third in the Asian market, after Thailand and Malaysia.

Bolt Taiwan officially operates in Taipei, New Taipei, Keelung, and Taoyuan.

“This is not only a significant step in our global expansion journey—it’s also a moment of deep appreciation for the support of local authorities, regulators, and partners, without whom this launch would not have been possible.,” said Eden Tseng, general manager of Bolt Taiwan.

They also offer affordable rides, transparent pricing, and in-app safety features including live trip sharing and emergency assist, backed by 24/7 support.

Drivers can benefit from competitive commissions, clear earnings, and smart dispatch technology designed to reduce idle time and improve efficiency. 

“We’re excited to grow together with local users, drivers, and fleet partners, and build a fairer and more diverse mobility ecosystem for Taiwan,” Tseng added.

Bolt’s mission is to make cities for people, not cars, by reducing congestion, complementing public transport, and promoting sustainable urban mobility.
