The Chinese Taipei national ice hockey team is the national ice hockey team of the Republic of China. It is controlled by the Chinese Taipei Ice Hockey Federation.

History

Chinese Taipei has only been active in 1987, 2005, 2008 and 2010. In 1987 they competed unofficially in the Pool D World Hockey Championships where their best was result was a 2-2 draw against Hong Kong. Chinese Taipei was not a member of the IIHF at the time, but showed up to the tournament, anyway, and were allowed to play one game against each other team. In 2005, they played 3 friendlies, losing to Hong Kong 2-6 and defeating Thailand 5-3 and 11-4. In 2008 they won the inaugural Challenge Cup of Asia held in Hong Kong. In 2009 they failed to send a team to the tournament, and in April 2010 they hosted the tournament (now recognized by the IIHF) and won it again.

As with other sports teams, under political opposition from the People's Republic of China, the Republic of China has competed under the "Chinese Taipei" banner as a result of the 1979 Nagoya Resolution.
