Do I need to print my ticket?

No. Your mobile ticket with its QR code is accepted at the entrance — simply show it on your phone.

Are children really free, and is there an age limit?

Yes. Children under 18 enter free of charge. They must be accompanied by a paying adult at all times.

What is the difference between the Northern Branch ticket and the combo?

The standard ticket covers admission to the National Palace Museum Northern Branch only. The combo adds entry to the Taipei 101 Observatory, giving you two major Taipei attractions in one booking.

How long should I allow for the museum?

The collection spans three floors and over 690,000 pieces, so most visitors spend between two and four hours. There is no time limit on your admission.

Is the museum accessible for wheelchair users?

The National Palace Museum has lifts and ramp access throughout the building. If you have specific accessibility requirements, we recommend contacting the museum directly ahead of your visit.

Can I cancel if my plans change?

Please check the cancellation policy shown at checkout, as terms vary by ticket type. Date-specific tickets may have restricted cancellation windows.
