Rules in force · 7
  • East Asia ↗Every border in East Asia is a full international border, Hong Kong and Macau included: an entry permission for one never covers the next.
  • East Asia ↗Ferries between Korea, Japan and China cancel in rough seas and typhoons; keep a flight or a spare day behind every sea leg.
  • Macau ↗Entry rules differ from mainland China and Hong Kong and depend on your passport; check the Macao SAR Government and Public Security Police sources before you book, and carry your passport for every crossing.
  • Macau ↗When Typhoon Signal No. 8 or higher is raised, ferries and buses stop and many shops close: stay where you are and re-plan the next day.
  • Macau SAR ↗Macau has its own immigration control, separate from mainland China and Hong Kong: carry your passport for every crossing and check the entry rules for your passport before you book.
  • Macau Peninsula ↗When Typhoon Signal No. 8 or higher is raised, ferries and buses stop and many shops close: stay where you are, re-plan the next day and check the operator before any crossing.
  • Macau Peninsula ↗Old-town lanes are narrow, steep and paved with small stones: large suitcases go from the car to the door, never on a walk.

Zero-brain vs precision

Daytime default
Taxi from the rank outside arrivals, on the meter, straight to the hotel door.
Precision
The airport is on Taipa's east side; the drive to the Peninsula crosses the Sai Van or Amizade bridges. A public bus and free hotel shuttles also serve the airport; check their current times (field-verify).
