An earthquake with a magnitude of 6.1 struck Taiwan's southeastern coastal county of Taitung on Wednesday, the island's weather administration said, although there were no immediate reports of damage.
The quake shook buildings in the capital, Taipei. The quake had a depth of 11.9 km (7.39 miles), the administration said.
There was not immediate report of damage across Taiwan, the National Fire Agency said.
Taiwan chipmaker TSMC said the quake did not reach the required level for evacuation of factories across the island, which lies near the junction of two tectonic plates and is prone to earthquakes.
At least three other earthquakes have been recorded near Taiwan in the past week, including a magnitude 4.9 on December 23, a magnitude 4.4 on December 21, and a magnitude 5.0 on December 18.
