Station overview

Both the Taoyuan Metro and Taipei Metro portions of the station are elevated; it is the only station in Taiwan serving two elevated rapid transit lines.

The Taoyuan Airport MRT portion of the station consists of island platforms with 4 tracks as it was designed for service by both Commuter and Express trains.[3] The station is 132 metres (433 ft) long and 32 metres (105 ft) wide. It opened for trial service on 2 February 2017, and for commercial service 2 March 2017.[4][1] The station began offering in-town check-in and luggage handling services in January 2020.[2]

The Taipei Metro Circular line portion of the station features side platforms.[5] The station is about 87 metres (285 ft) long, 23 metres (75 ft) wide, and 33.5 metres (110 ft) high, and connected to an integrated development building. The theme will be "flight".

As the Taipei Metro and the Taoyuan Metro are different systems, transfer passengers exit one system and then enter the other via the respective fare gates. An elevated transfer bridge approximately 40 metres (130 ft) long connects the two platform areas.
