Is a visa needed?

Official source checked
  • Citizens of Bangladesh, Nepal, Nigeria, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Vietnam have been asked to obtain a Macao visa in advance, and Macao SAR is separate from Mainland China visa rules. A Chinese mainland visa does not automatically cover Macao.

Prior Authorization through the PSP

Official source checked
  • The Macao government page describes Prior Authorization to Enter for people who are not exempt from visa or authorization and who do not want to get authorization on arrival at the checkpoint. Application forms PS-1472A to D are linked from the page.
  • Decisions rest with the Macao authorities. Fees and rules change, so confirm before you book.

Where to apply from Bangladesh

Confirm with our office
  • We could not confirm from an official page which office in Dhaka accepts Macao applications. Please confirm with the Chinese Visa Application Service Centre in Dhaka or the Macao PSP before paying any agent.
