行政訴訟法

If the High Administrative Court finds the urban plan is not unlawful, it must dismiss the plaintiff’s lawsuit. The same result applies if the plan only violated procedural rules but the defect was lawfully cured before the end of first-instance oral argument.

高等行政法院在認定都市計畫違法時，應宣告其無效；在特定情形下，也可宣告自違法原因發生時起失效，或僅宣告違法。

When an urban plan is finally declared void, invalid, or unlawful, the original issuing agency must publish the judgment’s main text, and relevant authorities must take necessary follow-up measures for a final unlawful declaration.

交通裁決事件的訴訟要以原處分機關為被告，直接向有管轄權的地方行政法院提起；撤銷訴訟須在裁決書送達後30日內提出。

在爭議中的都市計畫，如有必要為防止重大損害或避免急迫危險，可以向有管轄權的行政法院聲請暫時停止適用或執行，或請求其他必要處置。

The urban planning review procedure follows the rules in Chapter 1, unless this chapter provides otherwise.

地方行政法院送達起訴狀繕本給被告後，被告應在20日內重新審查原裁決，並依案件類型作出撤銷、變更、確認或返還等處置。

交通裁決事件的裁判費，依起訴、上訴、抗告、再審和特定聲請分別按金額徵收；若依前條第三項視為撤回起訴，法院應主動退還已繳裁判費。

If a claim change or addition means all or part of the case is outside traffic adjudication matters, the local administrative court must switch to summary or ordinary litigation procedure; if it lacks ordinary-procedure jurisdiction, it must transfer the case to the competent high administrative court.

交通裁決事件的裁判，可以不經言詞辯論作成。

行政法院在裁判訴訟費用時，應確定費用額；在前項情形下，也可命當事人提出費用計算書及說明費用額的文書。

交通裁決事件原則上適用簡易訴訟程序的規定，但本章另有規定者除外。

This provision allows an appeal to the Supreme Administrative Court against a final judgment of the High Administrative Court, unless another law provides otherwise, and bars changes to the claim, adding claims, and counterclaims in the appeal procedure.

與前條判決有關的前裁判，原則上由最高行政法院審判；但本法另有不得聲明不服，或得以抗告聲明不服的情形，不在此限。

This provision says which agency is the defendant in an administrative lawsuit after a petition process, depending on whether the petition was rejected, revoked, or changed.

當事人在高等行政法院判決宣示、公告或送達後，可以捨棄上訴權。

Appeals must be filed within 20 days after service of a High Administrative Court judgment; an appeal filed after oral pronouncement or public announcement but before service is still effective.

This provision is deleted.

An appeal against a High Administrative Court judgment is not allowed unless it is based on a violation of law.

判決如果沒有適用法規或適用不當，就屬於違背法令。

上訴人必須用上訴狀寫明法定事項，並提出到原高等行政法院。

如果上訴狀沒有寫明上訴理由，上訴人要在上訴後20日內向原高等行政法院提出理由書；未提出的，法院可直接裁定駁回，不必先命補正。

原高等行政法院對不合法的上訴，若無法補正，應以裁定駁回；若可以補正，應定期間命其補正，逾期未補正也應駁回。

If an appeal is not dismissed under the previous article, the High Administrative Court must promptly serve the appeal petition on the appellee, who may file a response within 15 days after service.

被上訴人和上訴人可以在最高行政法院判決前提出追加書狀；必要時，最高行政法院可以將前項書狀送達給對造。

This provision requires the Supreme Administrative Court to dismiss inadmissible appeals, allows correction first when the defect can be fixed, and permits a fine of up to NT$120,000 in certain abusive appeal cases.

When a matter entrusted to a group or person exercising public authority is litigated, the entrusted group or person is the defendant.

The appeal statement may not be changed or expanded.

最高行政法院只能在上訴聲明的範圍內調查，並可就高等行政法院判決是否違背法令進行調查，不受上訴理由限制。

（刪除）

最高行政法院在特定情形下應行言詞辯論，並由該法院訂定言詞辯論實施辦法。

Oral argument is limited to the scope of the appeal, and the court may proceed and decide even if certain parties or counsel do not appear in specified circumstances.

最高行政法院原則上要以高等行政法院已確定的事實作為判決基礎；但在特定上訴理由或言詞辯論中形成的資料，法院也可以斟酌。

The Highest Administrative Court must dismiss an appeal if it finds the appeal has no merit.

最高行政法院認為上訴有理由時，應就該部分廢棄原判決。

如果案件由地方行政法院作第一審管轄，且高等行政法院依通常訴訟程序作成判決，最高行政法院不得僅以高等行政法院無管轄權為由撤銷原判決。

最高行政法院原則上不得因高等行政法院無管轄權而廢棄原判決；但違背專屬管轄規定者，不在此限。若因高等行政法院無管轄權而廢棄原判決，應以判決將事件移送有管轄的行政法院。

Except for the cases listed in Article 243(2)(1)–(5), the High Administrative Court may not annul a prior judgment that violates the law if the violation does not affect the result.

If the original judgment is set aside and one of the listed conditions exists, the Supreme Administrative Court must decide the case itself.

法官在特定案件中提出不同法律意見，並在評決後三日內補具書面且已記明於評議簿者，得附記於裁判；逾期則不附記。

If a defendant agency is abolished or reorganized, the agency taking over its business becomes the defendant agency; if there is no such agency, the direct superior agency becomes the defendant agency.

最高行政法院在廢棄原判決後，原則上應把案件發回原高等行政法院或交由其他高等行政法院，並要具體指示需調查的事項。

最高行政法院在案件屬於發回或發交時，應儘速把判決正本附入卷宗，並送交受發回或發交的高等行政法院。

最高行政法院判決書的事實及理由，若與高等行政法院判決相同，可以引用。

上訴人可在終局判決宣示或公告前撤回上訴。

除本編另有規定外，本編前章節的規定，適用於最高行政法院上訴審程序。

Local administrative court final judgments may be appealed to the competent high administrative court, unless another law provides otherwise; second-instance judgments of the high administrative court may not be appealed.

High Administrative Courts may not overturn a judgment by using the wrong first-instance procedure, and must decide the appeal under the appellate procedure that applies to the case.

高等行政法院在特定程序誤用或管轄錯誤時，應撤銷原判決並發回或改交有管轄的地方行政法院；有一種情況下則直接依通常訴訟程序作第一審判決。

高等行政法院在上訴事件中，為統一裁判見解時，應附理由移送最高行政法院；當事人也可在特定情況下聲請移送。

This article says certain earlier procedural rules apply, with exceptions, to appeals in the High Administrative Court and to traffic adjudication appeals.

裁定原則上可以抗告，但如果另有禁止抗告的規定，就不適用。

During ongoing litigation proceedings, rulings generally may not be appealed unless another rule provides otherwise.

受命法官或受託法官的裁定原則上不得抗告，但在特定情況下可向受訴行政法院提出異議，且該異議裁定仍可依本編規定抗告。

抗告由直接上級行政法院裁定，且對抗告法院的裁定不得再抗告。

An appeal must be filed within 10 days after service of the ruling; an appeal filed before service is still effective.

提起抗告通常要向原裁定的行政法院或原審判長所屬行政法院提出抗告狀；在訴訟救助相關抗告，或由證人、鑑定人、持有證物的第三人提起抗告時，可以用口頭方式。

A person who can independently bear obligations by legal act has litigation capacity. Juristic persons, central and local agencies, and unincorporated associations must act in litigation through their representative or manager, and the same rule applies to agents authorized by law to act in litigation.

關於捨棄上訴權及撤回上訴的規定，也適用於抗告。

如果本應提起抗告卻誤提異議，或本應提出異議卻誤提抗告，法律上都視為已依正確程序提出。

This provision says several specified rules are applied by analogy to appeal proceedings, including to Supreme Administrative Court appeal proceedings and to this part of the code.

當事人在列舉事由存在時，可以對確定終局判決提起再審之訴；但若事由已在上訴中主張且被判無理由，或明知事由卻未上訴主張，則不在此限。

If the conditions in the preceding article apply, a retrial lawsuit may be filed against the judgment.

如果行政法院已認為再審沒有理由而駁回，當事人不得就同一事由，再對原確定判決或駁回再審的確定判決再次提起再審之訴。

This provision assigns exclusive jurisdiction for retrial suits to specific administrative courts.

再審之訴通常要在三十日內提出；逾五年原則上不得提起，但有特定再審事由者例外。

A retrial complaint must state the required items and be filed with the competent administrative court.

行政法院對不合法的再審之訴，應以裁定駁回；若再審理由顯然不存在，則可不經言詞辯論，改以判決駁回。

The hearing and judgment are limited to the part that is disputed.

本節適用民事訴訟法第四十六條至第四十九條及第五十一條的規定。

If a retrial petition has retrial grounds but the administrative court finds the original judgment proper, the court must dismiss the petition by judgment.

除本編另有規定外，再審訴訟程序適用各該審級訴訟程序的規定。

再審判決原則上不影響第三人依善意信賴確定終局判決而取得的權利；但若對公益造成顯著重大妨害，則例外。

If a ruling is final and the situation in Article 273 applies, the person may apply the provisions of this part and petition for retrial.

符合特定條件的第三人，可以就確定終局判決聲請重新審理；聲請須在知悉確定判決後30日內提出，且判決確定已逾1年者不得聲請。

聲請重新審理時，適用第二百七十五條第一項、第二項關於管轄的規定。

聲請重新審理時，聲請人要向管轄行政法院提出聲請狀，並載明指定事項。

If a retrial application is unlawful, the administrative court must dismiss it by ruling.

If the administrative court finds the application under Article 284(1) justified, it must order a retrial; if not, it must dismiss the application.

聲請人可在前二條裁定確定前撤回聲請；撤回可用書狀或口頭方式。

Many persons with a common interest may choose 1 to 5 of them to sue or be sued for all.

When the order to reopen the case becomes final, the original litigation procedure must be restored and the case retried at the same level. The applicant automatically becomes a party after restoration.

聲請重新審理，不會自動停止原確定判決的執行；但行政法院認為必要時，可以命停止執行。

Article 282’s provisions apply to retrials.

To preserve enforcement of a public-law monetary payment, a provisional attachment may be requested.

A provisional attachment application is heard by either the administrative court handling the main case or the local administrative court where the attachment subject is located.

假扣押裁定後，尚未提起給付之訴的人，應在裁定送達後10日內起訴；逾期未起訴時，行政法院應依聲請撤銷假扣押裁定。

假扣押裁定被撤銷時，債權人要賠償債務人因此受的損害。

The listed Civil Procedure Act provisions apply to provisional seizure proceedings in this part.

在公法上權利因現狀變更而難以實現時，可聲請假處分；在爭執中的公法上法律關係有必要時，也可聲請定暫時狀態的處分。

A person who may request suspension of enforcement under Article 116 may not apply for a provisional injunction under the preceding article.

This provision defines “administrative litigation” as annulment litigation, confirmation litigation, and performance litigation.

This provision defines what the terms “high administrative court” and “local administrative court” mean for this law.

Certain parties may be replaced or added, with consent or by the administrative court in some cases.

聲請假處分，通常由管轄本案的行政法院管轄；如有急迫情形，也可由請求標的所在地的地方行政法院管轄。

Unless there are special circumstances, the court may not order security instead of a statement or explanation in matters concerning provisional injunction requests and reasons.

Unless otherwise provided, the rules for provisional seizure also apply to provisional injunctions.

民事訴訟法第535條及第536條的規定，適用於本編的假處分程序。

If a revocation judgment becomes final, the relevant authority must immediately take the necessary steps to carry out the judgment.

裁判確定後債務人不履行給付時，債權人可聲請地方行政法院強制執行；法院先通知債務人限期履行，逾期仍不履行才執行。

地方行政法院為辦理行政訴訟強制執行事務時，得囑託地方法院民事執行處或行政機關代為執行；如債務人就該囑託代執行的執行名義有異議，由地方行政法院裁定。

This provision assigns which court must hear debtor objection lawsuits and other enforcement-related lawsuits.

This provision says Civil Procedure Act rules also apply to administrative litigation unless this Act already provides otherwise or the rules conflict with the nature of administrative litigation.

本法自公布日施行；修正條文的施行日期由司法院以命令定之。

If one of the selected or appointed persons loses qualification because of death or another reason, the other selected or appointed persons may carry out litigation acts for everyone.

訴訟當事人在第二十九條及第三十條下的選定、指定，以及其更換、增減，應通知對方當事人。

被選定人原則上未經全體同意，不得捨棄、認諾、撤回或和解；但在符合特定條件時，可經原選定人同意，就訴之一部撤回或和解。

訴訟當事人的選定、更換、增減，應以文書證明。

Public-interest incorporated associations, and by analogy certain unincorporated groups, may sue for public benefit if members with a common interest have granted litigation authority within the organization’s stated purpose.

本節適用民事訴訟法第48條與第49條的規定。

Two or more persons may jointly sue or be sued as co-litigants in the listed situations.

共同訴訟中，一人的行為或對一人的事項，原則上不影響其他共同訴訟人，但另有規定者除外。

共同訴訟中，如果訴訟標的必須對各人合一確定，就適用本條列出的規則。

符合條件的人可以向行政法院提起撤銷訴訟；另外，逾越權限或濫用權力的行政處分，視為違法。

Each joint litigant has the right to continue the lawsuit, and if the administrative court sets a hearing date, it must notify each joint litigant to appear.

If the subject matter must be determined uniformly for a third person and one party, the administrative court must order that third person to join the litigation.

在撤銷訴訟中，如果第三人的權利或法律上利益可能受損，行政法院可以命其參加訴訟，也可以依第三人聲請裁定准許其參加。

第三人依前條規定聲請參加訴訟時，應向繫屬中的行政法院提出參加書狀並說明指定事項；不符前條規定者，法院應裁定駁回，該裁定得抗告，且在駁回裁定未確定前，參加人仍得進行訴訟行為。

行政法院在認為有必要協助一方時，可以命其他行政機關參加訴訟；前項行政機關或有利害關係的第三人也可以聲請參加。

行政法院作出命參加訴訟的裁定前，應先命當事人或第三人以書狀或言詞陳述；該裁定並應記載訴訟程度與理由，且送達當事人。

Participation in litigation is governed by Article 39, applied mutatis mutandis.

This provision says the judgment is effective against a person who was ordered or allowed to join a case by the administrative court under Articles 41 and 42 but did not join.

For participation litigation under Article 44, the rules in Articles 59-61 and 63-67 apply mutatis mutandis.

當事人可以委任代理人進行訴訟，但每位當事人委任的訴訟代理人不得超過3人。行政訴訟原則上應由律師擔任代理人，非律師只有在列舉情形下才可擔任，且通常還需要審判長許可。

Certain administrative court cases require the party to appoint a lawyer as litigation representative, with limited exceptions.

在前條第一項的情形下，訴訟代理人可以陪同當事人到庭；經審判長許可後，當事人可以口頭陳述，並可依法自行進行特定訴訟行為。

符合條件的當事人可以聲請行政法院為其選任律師當訴訟代理人；若提起上訴或抗告，原行政法院應把卷宗送交上級審行政法院；相關辦法由司法院定之。

人民在完成訴願程序後，得就中央或地方機關對其依法申請案件的不作為或駁回，向行政法院提起訴訟，請求機關作成行政處分或特定內容的行政處分。

訴訟代理人第一次進行訴訟行為時，應提出委任書；但如果當事人以口頭委任，且由行政法院書記官記明筆錄，則不在此限。

A litigation agent may perform litigation acts for the assigned matter, but certain major acts need special authorization.

If there are two or more litigation agents, each may act alone for the party.

訴訟代理權不會因本人死亡、破產、訴訟能力喪失，或法定代理變更、機關裁撤、改組而消滅。

Termination of litigation representation must be filed in writing with the administrative court, and the court serves it on the other party. If the litigation agent terminates the mandate, the agent must still do the acts needed to protect the principal’s rights for 15 days from the notice of termination.

當事人或訴訟代理人經審判長許可，可在期日帶輔佐人到場，但最多二人。

Civil Procedure Act Articles 72, 75, and 77 apply to this section with necessary adjustments.

當事人的書狀原則上應載明指定事項；司法院可訂格式、記載方法及效力規則，行政法院可拒絕不符規則的書狀提出。

當事人等在書狀內應簽名或蓋章；若以指印代簽名，需由他人代書姓名、記明事由並簽名。

The provisions of Articles 118 to 121 of the Civil Procedure Code apply to this section.

本條限制確認訴訟的提起條件，並規定誤提起時法院的處理方式。

Certain litigation statements or remarks may be made orally before the administrative court clerk, unless the law requires a written filing; in that case, the clerk must make and sign a record.

除另有規定外，行政法院書記官應依職權為送達。

行政法院書記官可將送達交由執達員或郵務機構辦理；若由郵務機構送達，郵務人員即為送達人，相關實施辦法由司法院會同行政院訂定。

行政法院可以請送達地的地方法院代為送達。

This provision sets who must be served when the recipient lacks litigation capacity or is a legal entity, government body, or unincorporated association, with limited exceptions for multiple representatives or unknown service addresses.

向在中華民國有事務所或營業所的外國法人或團體送達時，應送達其在中華民國的代表人或管理人；若代表人或管理人有二人以上，可以只向其中一人送達。

通常應向訴訟代理人送達；如審判長認為必要，也可以併向當事人本人送達。

If a party or agent tells the administrative court that a designated service recipient has been appointed, the court must serve documents on that recipient. If the presiding judge considers it necessary, service may instead be ordered on the party personally.

指定送達代收人後，其效力延及同地的各級行政法院；但如果當事人或代理人另有陳明，則不適用。

當事人或代理人在中華民國沒有住居所、事務所或營業所時，應指定送達代收人，並向受訴行政法院陳明。

提起行政訴訟的人，可以在同一程序中一併請求損害賠償或其他財產上給付。

如果當事人或代理人沒有依前條指定送達代收人，行政法院可以把應送達的文書交給郵局用掛號寄送。

送達通常要在受送達人的住居所、事務所或營業所進行；在特定情況下，也可以改在會晤地點、法人或機關所在地、住居所，或受送達人的就業處所進行。

如果在住居所、事務所、營業所或機關所在地找不到應受送達人，文書可以交給有辨別能力的同居人、受雇人，或願意代收且住在同一住宅的主人；前條所定送達處所的收件人員也視為同居人或受雇人。

When ordinary service cannot be made, the document may be deposited with the local autonomous or police authority, or with a nearby postal institution if the server is a postal worker. The depositing body must keep the document for two months, and service becomes effective after ten days from deposit.

如果應受送達人無法律上理由而拒絕收領，文書應留置於送達處所，視為送達。

送達原則上不得在星期日、其他休息日、日出前或日沒後進行；但若由郵務機構送達，或應受送達人不拒絕收領，則不受此限。

法院內交付文書給受送達人時，行政法院書記官應命受送達人提出收據附卷。

If service is to be made in a foreign country or outside the territory, the document should be entrusted to the foreign competent authority, a ROC embassy/consulate, or another institution or organization there; if that cannot be done, the document may be sent by registered double mail through the postal service.

對於在軍隊或軍艦服役的軍人進行送達時，應囑託該管軍事機關或長官辦理。

人民在特定公法關係下，可以提起給付訴訟；如果該請求是以行政處分是否應撤銷為基礎，原告要在提起撤銷訴訟時一併提出。

在監所內送達文件的人，應交由該監所長官代為辦理。

行政法院在符合特定情形時，可以依聲請或依職權對當事人作公示送達。

This rule sets when public service by notice takes effect.

With the consent of the litigation-related persons, litigation documents may be sent by technological equipment and have the same effect as service or notice.

除別有規定外，審判長依職權定期日；但在不得已情形外，期日不得訂在星期日或其他休息日。

行政法院書記官在審判長定期日後應向訴訟關係人作通知書並送達。

Acts due by a deadline should be performed in the administrative court, unless that is impossible or inappropriate there.

期日原則上以朗讀案由為始；如有重大理由，期日得變更或延展，且除別有規定外，由審判長裁定。

行政法院或審判長可在法定情形外，酌情 تعیین期間；該期間通常自送達指定期間的文書時起算，若不需要送達，則自宣示裁判時起算。

當事人若不住在行政法院所在地，計算法定期間時，原則上要扣除在途期間；但如果訴訟代理人住在行政法院所在地且可在期間內代為訴訟行為，則不扣除。

People may bring an administrative lawsuit to protect the public interest against unlawful acts by an administrative agency, but only where a special law specifically allows it.

有重大理由時，期間可以延長或縮短；但不變期間不適用。

因天災或其他不可歸責原因而錯過不變期間的人，原則上可在原因消滅後一個月內聲請回復原狀；若原期間少於一個月，則在相同日數內聲請。

A person asking for reinstatement after missing an appeal-related deadline must apply to the proper administrative court and must at the same time complete the procedural act that was missed.

When an application for restoration to the original position is handled, the administrative court hearing it must decide that application together with the procedural acts that are later completed. If the original court considers the application should be allowed and sends an appeal or protest to a higher administrative court, that higher court must make the joint decision instead.

受命法官或受託法官在辦理其職務行為時，可以定期日及期間。

行政法院書記官要把行政法院應保存的訴訟文書編成卷宗；卷宗滅失事件則適用民刑事訴訟卷宗滅失案件處理法的規定。

當事人可以向行政法院書記官聲請閱覽、抄錄、影印或攝影卷內文書，或先預納費用請求提供繕本、影本或節本；第三人則須先符合當事人同意或具有法律上利害關係，並經行政法院裁定許可。

Draft judgments and preparation/deliberation documents may not be inspected, copied, photographed, or given out as copies/excerpts, unless another law provides otherwise.

訴訟費用通常由敗訴的一方負擔；若屬第一百九十八條的判決，則由被告負擔。

No separate court fee is charged when one lawsuit includes multiple claims, or when a claim is amended, added, or a counterclaim is filed.

對上訴，裁判費加徵二分之一；但在特定再上訴情形下，免徵裁判費。

A retrial suit is charged court fees based on the court level of the original lawsuit, and an application for retrial of a final ruling is charged a court fee of NT$1,000.

An appeal is subject to a court fee of NT$1,000.

聲請或聲明原則上不收裁判費，但列出的七類聲請要收新臺幣1,000元。

除法律另有規定外，這些費用的項目和標準由司法院決定；郵電送達費及行政法院人員在法院外辦理訴訟時的食、宿、交通費，不另行徵收。

For traffic adjudication case court fees, if Chapter 3 of Part 2 has separate rules, those rules apply.

行政法院或審判長為當事人選任律師擔任特別代理人或訴訟代理人時，律師酬金由行政法院或審判長定；其支給標準由司法院定之。
