Current: 2025–26 Taiwan Football Premier League

The Taiwan Football Premier League (TFPL; Chinese: 台灣企業甲級足球聯賽; pinyin: Táiwān Qǐyè Jiǎ Jí Zúqiú Liánsài) is the top-ranked Taiwanese football league run by the Chinese Taipei Football Association (CTFA).

The Taiwan Football Premier League was founded in 2017 after the folding of the then highest-ranked National First Division Football League (Intercity Football League).^[1]

During the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, it was one of the few football leagues in the world to begin and proceed without disruption, due to the relatively light situation in Taiwan compared to most other countries.^[2]

The Taiwan Football Premier League's schedule usually runs from April to November. It contains 8 teams that compete in a series of three round-robin tournaments, each composed of seven games. After the 21 game schedule is complete, the top team wins the league title and an automatic berth in the following year's AFC Challenge League.

Since 2020, a system of promotion and relegation exists between the Premier League and the Taiwan Football Challenge League (Chinese: 台灣企業甲級升降足球聯賽; pinyin: Táiwān Qǐyè Jiǎ Jí Shēngjiàng Zúqiú Liánsài) . The lowest placed team in the Premier League is relegated to the Challenge League, and the top team from the Challenge League promoted to the Premier League. The runners-up of the Challenge League will play in a qualification tournament with the 7th in the Premier League, which the winner stays in the first Division.^[3]
