Passport / Visa

All visitors must hold a passport or a valid travel document for travel to Macau and are required to have a visa except some countries which are exempted from a visa or entry permit.

Most travelers can enter Macau with just their passports for between 30 and 90 days, including citizens of the following countries:
Australia
Canada
EU
New Zealand
South Africa
USA

Travelers who do require visas can get them, valid for 30 days, on arrival in Macau. Visitors may also apply for an entry permit or visa upon arrival at the immigration checkpoint. However, visitors from certain countries are required to obtain a visa in advance before their trip to Macau.

You can get a single one-month visa extension from the Peninsula or Taipa branches of the Macau Immigration Department.
