After the war, there were so many things to be done, and the ceremonies were temporarily suspended. In 1946, in order to restore the Confucius ceremonies, it was decided that the Taipei Chong Sheng Association should be restored. The mayor of Taipei City, Yu Mi-chien(游彌堅), was appointed as chairman of the committee. Huang Chi-jui(黃啟瑞), the minister of education, and Koo Chen-fu(辜振甫) were selected as vice chairmen. The committee was to be responsible for the yearly Confucius ceremony. In 1950, to celebrate Confucius 2,500th birthday, a special worship ceremony was held, and R.O.C. President Chiang Kai-shek gave the temple an inscribed wooden tablet on which he personally wrote Education for All. In 1951, the Taipei Confucius Temple Administration Committee was established, and Taipei mayor Wu San-lien(吳三連) was selected as the chairman. This committee was to be responsible for taking care of day-to-day operations and yearly ceremonies.

In 1971, on behalf of all those who had contributed to building of the temple, Koo Chen-fu(辜振輔) and Chen His-ching(陳錫慶) (descendants of Koo Hsien-jung and Chen Pei-ken), gave the temple to the government in the belief that respecting the ways of Confucius should be an important priority for the nation. The Executive Yuan approved the donation of the temple and transferred authority over it to the Taipei City Government. In July 1972, the Taipei Confucius Temple Administration Committee was formally established and placed under the authority of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
