Limit on google autocomplete queries?

I am planning to use the Google auto complete on my site. Is there a limit on the number of queries I can make?

I am using the exact code listed in this question: How to limit google autocomplete results to City and Country only

For Google Places API:

Applications that submit requests with an API key are allowed 1 000 requests per 24 hour period. You can increase the above limit to 150 000 requests per 24 hour period by verifying your identity through the Google Developers Console. A credit card is required for verification, by enabling billing in the console.

For Google Places JavaScript Library:

These limits do not apply to the Places JavaScript Library, which does not require an API key, and is covered by the Google Maps JavaScript API limits.

You can use Google Maps Javascript API Places library without hesitation. Limits mentioned on other answers applied to Places API, not Places library of the Maps API. From https://developers.google.com/places/uplift

Choose the right service for your application

If you are developing a web based application that only needs to search for places, and is not submitting new places or Place Bumps, you should use the Places library of the Maps API rather than using the Places API web service. The Places library assigns a quota to each end user rather than to each key. This means that your available quota increases with your user base rather than being capped at a fixed amount.
