The title compound, [PdCl2(C6H16N3)](C7H7SO3), consists of a PdII atom bonded to two N atoms of the 1,4,7-triaza­cyclo­nonane (TACN) ligand and two chloride ions, which define a distorted square-planar geometry. The third N atom of the TACN ligand is protonated and hydrogen bonds to the p-toluene­sulfonate anion. The Cl—Pd—Cl angle is larger than the N—Pd—N angle. The packing is dominated by layers, which are formed by the criss-crossing of two different hydrogen-bonded chains. One chain is composed of hydrogen-bonded Pd(TACNH)Cl2+ cations, while the second is formed through hydrogen bonding between the p-toluene­sulfonate anion and the Pd(TACNH)Cl2+ cation.
