Hello everyone! If we disembark in Keelung at 8:30 in the morning and pick up the car at Songshan Airport at 10:30 in the morning, we still need to get a SIM card, Easycard, and withdraw money in between. Will two hours be enough time? If not, what time would be suitable to pick up the car? Since the last two destinations are Ximending in Taipei, thank you ?

From Keelung to Songshan Airport, it takes 23 kilometers and 19 minutes on the expressway. If you don't have to wait in line to get a phone card, it takes 15 minutes. Assuming there are 5 people in front of you at the ATM and they are operating normally, it will take 20 minutes (when I was at Taoyuan Airport with 4 people in front of me, it took 25 minutes. The first person seemed to be from Southeast Asia, and the card was inserted and removed several times, and it took more than 10 minutes to withdraw money, so I had to give up. The other two, one was a European and American couple, and the other was from Northeast Asia, surprisingly they didn't rush at all. If this was in mainland China, they would have been rushed by the people behind them. The other people each took about three minutes). If you haven't applied for a Youyou card, I'm not sure how long it will take. Recommendation: If you can buy or handle things well in mainland China, don't wait to do it at the airport, because no one knows what kind of people and things you will encounter at the airport and how much time it will delay.

If there are not many people, it will be quick. If there are many people, it will probably take an hour to get off the ship and go through customs. You can buy an EasyCard for around 125 NTD on Taobao, and a phone card for 7 days for around 50 NTD. Anyway, the specific time to pick up the car can be negotiated with the car rental company.

Interpretation of the situation where the friend above violated the law and turned. It's definitely not that the police officer is too kind, or the elder sister is too beautiful. The police officer must know that mainland residents do not have an international driver's license, so why bother detaining you. The mainland is not a contracting party to the International Driving Permit, and the International Driving Permit must be presented together with the local driver's license to be valid. Why not handle it, because there is no specific handling clause. Or understand it as a blind spot in the regulations ? Taiwan(China) Q&A
