Tesla Files for Supervised FSD Approval with Taiwan Transportation Regulator
TSLA•Tesla has submitted its supervised Full Self-Driving (FSD) software approval application to Taiwan’s transportation regulator, marking its first such filing in Asia. Approval would allow Tesla to beta test supervised FSD on Taiwanese roads, potentially boosting regional sales and accelerating FSD subscription revenue given high local safety standards.
1. Taiwan Regulatory Filing
In June 2026, Tesla filed its first supervised Full Self-Driving (FSD) approval application with Taiwan’s transportation authority, seeking permission to deploy and test its latest autonomous driving software under local regulations.
2. Supervised FSD Features
Supervised FSD allows drivers to remain attentive while accessing advanced capabilities such as automated lane changes, adaptive cruise control in traffic, and urban navigation—features designed to comply with Taiwan’s stringent safety standards.
3. Potential Market Impact
Regulatory approval could enable Tesla to expand its FSD beta program in Asia, strengthen its competitive positioning against local automakers, and drive recurring subscription revenue from a market with high EV adoption rates.
