2025 Latest Recommendation: The Best VPN for Taiwan IP!

If you need to watch certain shows that require a Taiwan IP address, using a VPN is a good method. When choosing a VPN, fast internet speed and smooth, lag-free viewing are the primary considerations. Below are my experiences with a few VPNs I’ve used:

PrivadoVPN

PrivadoVPN

PrivadoVPN is a company that provides Virtual Private Network (VPN) services, established in 2019 and headquartered in Zug, Switzerland. The company is committed to providing secure and encrypted data transmission services and supports IP address hiding, aiming to protect users’ online privacy and security.
Company location: Grafenauweg 8, Zug, 6300, Switzerland.

PrivadoVPN currently has over 300 servers worldwide, distributed across 49 countries and 66 cities. This gives it a relatively good server coverage in the VPN market, although there is still a gap compared to some competitors, such as NordVPN which has servers in 111 countries.

Based on my actual usage experience, PrivadoVPN still has room for improvement in some areas:

• Browser Extension Limitations: The browser plugin can only select servers in specific countries, which is a bit inconvenient for users who need to flexibly switch to a Taiwan IP.
• Linux User Experience: For Ubuntu users, if you want to use the OpenVPN protocol, you need to operate via the command line; while WireGuard allows importing configuration files, if connection issues are encountered, new configuration files need to be re-downloaded and imported to reconnect, which adds a bit of complexity to the operation.

Urban VPN

Urban VPN – Taiwan

This is the VPN I am currently using. The speed is decent, and most importantly, it’s free. For the sole purpose of watching videos, this is more than sufficient.

PureVPN

PureVPN

This was the first VPN I used. The experience was acceptable at the time, with fast speeds, though there were occasional lags or disconnections. However, in 2023, PureVPN discontinued its Taiwan IP service, which forced me to look for other options.

Ivacy VPN

After PureVPN, I switched to Ivacy VPN but only used it for six months. In June 2024, Ivacy VPN suddenly discontinued its Taiwan server without any announcement. In comparison, PureVPN at least notified its users when it discontinued its Taiwan IP service.
Nevertheless, you can still find Ivacy VPN’s service page for Taiwan on Google: Ivacy Taiwan VPN Information

But on the server list, Taiwan is no longer available: Ivacy Server List

Last updated: July 2024 announcement. It has been merged with PureVPN, which explains the absence of Taiwan IPs since then.
