The Green Party Taiwan (台灣綠黨, pinyin: Táiwān Lǜ Dǎng) is a political party in the Republic of China on Taiwan, active in the late 20th century, established on 25 January 1996. The party is not a member of and should not be confused with the Pan-Green Coalition. As its name suggests, the Green Party Taiwan focuses on environmental issues. The Green Party Taiwan is a member of the Asia-Pacific Green Network.
