The Taipei Times is one of the three major English-language newspapers in the Republic of China, commonly known as "Taiwan", the other two being the Taiwan News and The China Post. Established in 1999, the Taipei Times is published by the Liberty Times Group, which publishes the Chinese language newspaper the Liberty Times.

Liberty Times is widely regarded as taking an editorial line that leans toward the pro-Taiwan independence Pan-Green Coalition.^[1]

Along with such newspapers as The Guardian, it is a participant of Project Syndicate, established by George Soros. The Taipei Times sources articles from writers at The Guardian almost every day, including travel writers.

In March 2005, the Taipei Times web site incorporated a "Wikipedia feature" for its online articles. By following a link marked "wiki links", the reader can view a new version of the article with links to the Wikipedia pages about certain subjects mentioned in the news article.
