The Chinese Taipei national football team is the official name given by FIFA to the national Football team of the Republic Of China ( Taiwan ) (see '' Chinese Taipei '' for team naming issue.)

The Chinese Taipei Football Association (CTFA), was founded in Mainland China as the China Football Association in 1924 and relocated to Taiwan in 1949 at the end of the Chinese Civil War . Affiliated with FIFA in 1932 as ''China'', it rejoined FIFA in 1954 , first under the name ''Taiwan'', then ''Republic of China'', and later ''Chinese Taipei''.

All of the nation's international matches are played in Chung Shan Stadium , located in Taipei . The stadium's capacity is slightly above 20000 and is a football specific stadium.

The team's greatest success came when, playing as ''Taiwan'', they finished third in the Asian Cup in 1960 . However, the players in the team was originally came from Hong Kong since the reputation of joining Hong Kong National Team is lesser than the team of the Republic of China.
