Hi, I am from Suan Dusit University in Thailand. I would like to take my students to visit museum. Is there any admission fee for us ?
According to the official museum portal, there is no admission fee listed for Perak Royal Museum on the Department of Museums Malaysia page — typically meaning entry is free. They do not publish separate ticket prices on the official site.
It’s common in Malaysia for royal museums and national heritage sites under the museum department to be free or charge nominal fees, but Perak Royal Museum currently shows no entrance fee schedule.
👉 Recommended: You can call ahead to confirm if there’s any fee for your group of students — especially since large groups or foreign visitors sometimes have minimal charges at specialist galleries.
