DOCUMENT OVERVIEW
The Macao Health Code is a required health document wherein travelers entering Macao must declare their health condition. It was launched by the Macao SAR Government as an effort to stem COVID-19 spread in the community. The Health Code works as a system that classifies the traveler’s health status in different colors: red, yellow, and green.
WHO CAN ENTER MACAO WITH THIS DOCUMENT
All travelers who want to enter Macao need to complete this document. Once issued, visitors will receive a health code with a color. Travelers with a green code will be allowed to enter Macao without quarantine. Foreigners with a red color code will be denied to enter the country, while residents will be transferred to the public hospitals.
OBTAIN THE MACAO HEALTH CODE
All visitors must complete a form with their personal information and answer some questions about symptoms, COVID-19-patient contact history, and travel history within the past 21 days.
To enter the country, a negative coronavirus test result is required. Travelers arriving from Hong Kong and Taiwan must present proof of a negative nucleic acid COVID-19 test taken within 24 hours of arrival. Travelers arriving from Mainland China must present proof of a negative nucleic acid COVID-19 test conducted within 7 days prior to arrival.
