The association between single nucleotide polymorphisms and chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) has been determined. However, it was not known whether the polygenic risk score (PRS) for nasal polyps (NP) could predict CRS with NP (CRSwNP) or without NP (CRSsNP). The aim of this study was to investigate the association between PRSs for NP and the risk of CRS with or without NP. Data from 535 individuals with CRS and 5350 control subjects in the Taiwan Precision Medicine Initiative project were collected. Four PRSs for NP, including PGS000933, PGS000934, PGS001848, and PGS002060 from UK Biobank, were tested in these participants. They were divided into four groups according to quartiles of PRSs. The logistic regression model was performed to evaluate CRSwNP and CRSsNP risk according to PRSs for NP. The PGS002060 had the highest area under the curve at 0.534 for CRSsNP prediction and at 0.588 for CRSwNP prediction. Compared to subjects in the lowest PRS category, the PGS002060 significantly increased the odds for CRSsNP by 1.48 at the highest quintile (<i>p</i> = 0.003) and by 2.32 at the highest quintile for CRSwNP (<i>p</i> = 0.002). In addition, the odds for CRSwNP increased by 3.01 times in female CRSwNP patients (<i>p</i> = 0.009) at the highest quintile compared with those in the lowest PRS category. The PRSs for NP developed from European populations could be applied to the Taiwanese population to predict CRS risk, especially for female CRSwNP.
