A keyboard having multi-axis balance touch keys and particularly a keyboard equipped with touch keys aims to provide steady depressing operation. Each touch key includes a depressible plate, a contact switch, a base and a plurality of balance elements. The balance elements are arranged in two different axial directions and latched respectively on first retaining elements located on the depressible plate and second retaining elements located on the base. The first and second retaining elements have respectively at least one horizontal slot to allow the balance elements to slide therein parallel with the depressible plate. Thus downward depressing forces can be evenly distributed and a steady depressing movement is achieved wherever the touch keys is depressed. Swaying of the touch keys can be prevented and correct output signals can be delivered from the keyboard.
