Ticket prices have been adjusted. The National Palace Museum will officially revise its admission fees on July 1, with different pricing for international and domestic visitors. Starting in July, international visitors will pay between NT$150 and NT$250, while all domestic visitors—whether individual, group, or concessionary tickets—will be charged a flat rate of NT$150.

For international visitors, the individual ticket price rises from the current NT$160 to NT$250, the group ticket increases from NT$100 to NT$230, and the discounted ticket, previously NT$80, is adjusted to NT$150. Domestic visitors, regardless of individual, group, or concessionary categories, will all pay NT$150—but must present an ID card as proof of eligibility to purchase tickets.

The price adjustment was originally scheduled to take effect on April 1 but was postponed to July due to ongoing road renovations at the museum. Additionally, the domestic individual ticket price has been reduced from the original NT$160 to NT$150, making it the only category seeing a NT$10 decrease in this round of price changes.

Concessionary tickets apply to military personnel, police officers, holders of International Student Identity Cards, and those with Youth Travel Cards. Free admission is granted to preschool children, seniors aged 65 and above (Taiwanese nationals), people with disabilities and one accompanying person (regardless of nationality), low-income households (with valid documentation), and Taiwanese students.
