The Taipei Metro Xinbeitou Station (formerly transliterated as Hsin Peitou Station from 1997 until 2003) is the terminal station on the Xinbeitou Branch Line located in Beitou District, Taipei, Taiwan. The location of the station used to be the terminal station for the now-defunct TRA Xinbeitou Line.

The two-level, elevated station features an island platform and one exit. The station is known for being the closest to the Beitou hot springs.

After termination of TRA services, the original station building was disassembled and moved to Changhua for display at the Taiwan Folk Village. On April 1, 2017, the station building was returned and re-opened at nearby Qixing Park in Beitou.

Note: Since this station is the terminus of the branch line, one platform is designated as the arrival platform and the other as the departure platform. However, in actual service only one platform is used at any given time.
