Due to fears that the artifacts may be impounded and claimed by China due to the controversial [[political status of Taiwan]], the museum does not conduct exhibitions in mainland China. Since the museum's 1965 establishment in Taipei, the National Palace Museum has only made six large overseas exhibitions in countries which have passed laws to prevent judicial seizure of the treasures: the United States in 1996, France in 1998, Germany in 2003, Austria in 2008, Japan in 2014 and Australia in 2019.<ref>{{Cite news |title=New Japan law opens way for exhibits |url=http://www.chinapost.com.tw/taiwan/foreign-affairs/2011/03/26/296109/New-Japan.htm |date=26 March 2011 |agency=Central News Agency |work=The China Post}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |title=Taiwan gives green light to museum exhibitions in Japan |url=http://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2014/06/23/national/taiwan-gives-green-light-museum-exhibitions-japan |date=23 June 2014 |agency=Kyodo News |work=The Japan Times}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.artgallery.nsw.gov.au/exhibitions/heaven-and-earth-chinese-art/|title=Heaven and earth in Chinese art: treasures from the National Palace Museum, Taipei|publisher=Art Gallery of New South Wales|access-date=26 April 2019}}</ref>
