The Chinese Taipei national ice hockey team is the national men's ice hockey team of the Republic of China (Taiwan).

History

World Championship Pool D in Perth, Australia where their best 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 was allowed to play one game against each other team. In 2005, they played 3 friendlies, losing to Hong Kong once, 6–2 and defeating Thailand
twice, 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
