No, 15% window tint exceeds Taiwan’s legal limit of 30% visible light transmittance (VLT) for passenger vehicles, as stipulated by the Ministry of Transportation and Communications (MOTC) under the Road Traffic Safety Rules. Enforcement includes fines up to NT$3,600 and mandatory removal, with 2026 revisions tightening compliance checks via automated roadside VLT scanners.
