We performed astrometric observations of IRAS 20126+4104 with the very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) Exploration of Radio Astrometry (VERA). The measured parallax was 0.750 ± 0.092 mas, corresponding to a distance of $1.33^{+0.19}_{-0.15}\:$kpc. We found that IRAS 20126+4104 is located approximately 100 pc above the Galactic plane and moving further away from the Galactic plane with a veloci...
