A flexible printed circuit board and a display apparatus including the same, which can prevent damage due to static electricity is disclosed. The flexible printed circuit board includes a signal line region and a ground region protruding from the signal line region, wherein the external periphery of the signal line region is a conductive pattern unformed region where a conductive pattern is not formed. Additionally, at least a portion of the external periphery of the ground region is a conductive pattern formed region where a conductive pattern is formed.
