Qwen3.5-35B-A3B is a model record from **Qwen** in the Qwen family. [Source](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B) The recorded model identifier or checkpoint is `Qwen3.5-35B-A3B`. Use that exact identifier when checking documentation or a provider listing. [Source](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B) ### How can you access Qwen3.5-35B-A3B? The catalog documents **API and Open weights** access for Qwen3.5-35B-A3B. [Source 1](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B) · [Source 2](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/en/model-studio/model-pricing) · [Source 3](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/en/model-studio/text-generation-model) As of the catalog check, this version was listed as available. [Source](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B) For API use, confirm the exact model identifier, your account and region, and the endpoint's current limits in the linked documentation. An API listing does not establish access through a consumer subscription. Open weights means the model weights are distributed for use under their stated terms. It does not establish a hosted API, an open-source license, or a hardware requirement. This record documents API access separately. ### What are Qwen3.5-35B-A3B's context and output limits? The documented **context window is 256,000 tokens**. [Source](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/en/model-studio/text-generation-model) A separate maximum-output value is not established in this record. The context or input figure should not be used as an output allowance. Context, input and output limits describe different constraints. Do not add the figures together to infer a larger window. Check the endpoint's accounting for conversation history, system instructions, tools, media and generated tokens; a documented maximum is not a guarantee of answer quality or a measured usable capacity. ### What can Qwen3.5-35B-A3B receive and generate? Documented inputs: **text**. [Source](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/en/model-studio/text-generation-model) Documented outputs: **text**. [Source](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/en/model-studio/text-generation-model) Input support and output generation are separate capabilities. Reading an image does not establish image generation; a text output listing does not establish speech output. File sizes, formats and media limits depend on the documented implementation. ### What license is recorded for Qwen3.5-35B-A3B? The recorded license label is **apache-2.0**. [Source](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B) Read the linked license and associated use terms for this exact version before redistribution, commercial deployment or fine-tuning. A label alone does not establish every permission, restriction or obligation, and it does not determine the terms of a separate hosted service. ### What is documented about the Qwen3.5-35B-A3B checkpoint? This evidence refers to `Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B` at recorded revision `59d61f3ce65a6d9863b86d2e96597125219dc754`, checked October 23, 2026. [Repository metadata](https://huggingface.co/api/models/Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B) Safetensors metadata records **35,951,822,704 stored parameters**. This is a stored-weight count, not necessarily the number activated per token, a download size or a GPU-memory requirement. [Repository metadata](https://huggingface.co/api/models/Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B) Recorded architecture class: `Qwen3_5MoeForConditionalGeneration`. [Repository metadata](https://huggingface.co/api/models/Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B) Repository task tag: `image-text-to-text`. A task tag identifies a distribution category; it does not measure performance on that task. [Repository metadata](https://huggingface.co/api/models/Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B) Listed library: `transformers`. Check that library's version and model support before loading the weights. [Repository metadata](https://huggingface.co/api/models/Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B) Repository access gate: `false`. This records the repository's gate setting when checked; licensing and use terms still apply. [Repository metadata](https://huggingface.co/api/models/Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B) #### What the configuration file says The pinned `config.json` section `text_config` contains these values. [Pinned configuration](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B/resolve/59d61f3ce65a6d9863b86d2e96597125219dc754/config.json) `max_position_embeddings`: 262,144 `torch_dtype`: bfloat16 `num_attention_heads`: 16 `num_key_value_heads`: 2 `num_hidden_layers`: 40 `hidden_size`: 2,048 Configuration values describe the checkpoint and its implementation. In particular, max\_position\_embeddings, sliding\_window and rope\_scaling do not independently establish an API context limit, tested usable length or hardware requirement. Runtime, quantization, cache, batch size and input length affect deployment behavior. Read the retrieved model card for setup and qualifications. [Model card](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B/resolve/59d61f3ce65a6d9863b86d2e96597125219dc754/README.md) **Catalog qualifications:** Official publisher weight listing; availability refers to this distribution, not a guaranteed hosted API. Base, SFT and research variants are identified by their exact published names. Official quantization/runtime variants are retained as aliases. Listed in official hosted pricing inventory; regional endpoint availability must be checked. Dates in the model identifier are not treated as independently verified release dates.Official hosted API status: deprecated. Open-weight distribution remains separately listed. The text-generation catalog labels this as legacy/no longer recommended; no API shutdown is asserted.

Missing documentation is not evidence that a feature is unavailable. Headless Thrones has not independently benchmarked this model for this reference. Evaluate it on representative work before choosing it; these facts do not rank its accuracy, reliability, speed or suitability against another model. Keep the exact version in view ## Other Qwen models from Qwen. These are separate records in the same publisher family. A shared family name does not establish equal capabilities or interchangeable licenses. ### [Qwen-1\_8B](https://headlessthrones.com/models/alibaba-qwen-qwen-1-8b) Open weights ### [Qwen-1\_8B-Chat-Int4](https://headlessthrones.com/models/alibaba-qwen-qwen-1-8b-chat-int4) Open weights ### [Qwen-1\_8B-Chat-Int8](https://headlessthrones.com/models/alibaba-qwen-qwen-1-8b-chat-int8) Open weights ### [Qwen-14B](https://headlessthrones.com/models/alibaba-qwen-qwen-14b) Open weights ### [Qwen-14B-Chat](https://headlessthrones.com/models/alibaba-qwen-qwen-14b-chat) Open weights ### [Qwen-72B](https://headlessthrones.com/models/alibaba-qwen-qwen-72b) Open weights
