THSR Taoyuan Station (高鐵桃園站) is an underground station of the Taiwan High Speed Rail located in Zhongli District, Taoyuan City, Taiwan. It is also known as Qingpu Station (青埔車站).

Taoyuan HSR Station is a elevated station of Taoyuan Airport MRT (A18), which was under trial operation.

On November 10, 2006, the station opened for service. On January 5, 2007, the segment from the Banqiao Station to Xinzuoying Station opened for service and trains begin stopping at the station.

The Taiwan High Speed Rail Corporation signed contracts with China Airlines for preferential services at this station for the airlines' outbound passengers.

In the future the station will connect to the Taoyuan Airport MRT which is scheduled to begin service on March 2, 2017, and the planned Taoyuan MRT network.

The underground station has two side platforms. Twenty-two hectares around the station are reserved for commercial and industrial development, with the goal of developing the area into an international commercial city.
