In the past few years, Macau has developed into a popular tourist destination for Indians traversing the Southeast Asian routes. Known as the “Las Vegas of Asia”, Macau is a city-state and has been granted a Special Administrative Region status even though it is officially a part of China.
This means that if you are visiting Macau, you must inform yourself about the city-state’s rules and regulations, especially with regards to whether you will need a visa to travel there or not.
So, take a look at every relevant information about Macau visa for Indians before you start planning your trip!
No, Indians travelling to Macau for a span of less than 30 days do not require a visa to enter the country. So, most tourists will not need to apply for a visa, assuming that the duration of their trip is for less than 30 days.
Note: Visitors must ensure that their passport is valid for at least 6 months from the date of their visit to Macau to enjoy visa-free entry to the country.
However, if one plans to stay for longer than that, he/she will have to apply for a visa through an embassy or a consulate of the People’s Republic of China.
Yes, the visa on arrival facility is also available for Indian citizens wishing to stay in Macau for a period of more than 30 days.
Since Indians do not require any visa to travel to Macau for a period of less than 30 days, there is no visa fee associated with travelling to the country.
Indian citizens wishing to extend their trip for longer than 30 days have to follow the fee structure illustrated below to obtain the Macau visa:
Type of Visa |
Visa fee |
For individual visa |
MOP$100, which is USD 12.63 (approximately) |
For family visa |
MOP$200, which is USD 25.25 (approximately) |
For group visa |
MOP$50 per person which is USD 6.31 (approximately) |
Even though Indian citizens can enjoy a 30-day visa-free stay in Macau, they will need to obtain a visa if they plan to stay longer than that.
To obtain a Macau visa for Indian passport holders, individuals will have to furnish the following documents:
Indian citizens who need to extend their stay for longer than 30 days in Macao need to apply for the visa through an Embassy or the Consulate of the People’s Republic of China.
There is, unfortunately, no online medium of applying for the Macau visa.
To apply for the visa, visit the People’s Republic of China embassy in New Delhi:
Address – 50D, Shantipath, Chanakyapuri, New Delhi – 110021
Phone - +91-11-2611-2345 / +91-11-2687-1585 / +91-11-2611-6682
Email - chinaemb_in@mfa.gov.cn
Usually, the processing time of this visa is around 3 weeks after which you can avail approval for it. The visa is transferred to your passport on your arrival to the country.
So, there you go! Here’s everything you need to know about obtaining a visa to travel to Macau!
But, hold on!
Before you embark on this trip, have you considered availing a travel insurance policy for visiting Macau?
Well, availing a travel insurance policy is not mandatory before travelling to Macau, per se. But it is best to have one at your disposal to make sure that you are financially prepared to stave off any unforeseen liabilities that might arise during your trip. For example:
Avail Emergency Cash - It is common knowledge that Macau is famous for its casinos. As a result, petty thefts and snatching of wallets are also common here. Under such circumstances, you can avail emergency cash from your travel insurance. Further, if you happen to lose your passport alongside your wallet, the travel insurance will cover the costs of re-issuing it.
Covers Medical Emergencies - There is unfortunately only one public hospital in Macau, meaning that if you require hospitalization (whether accidental or illness related) you will have to incur substantial expenses. However, if you have travel insurance for Macau, your treatment expenses will be covered under it.
Other Coverage Areas - A travel insurance policy benefits you by providing coverage for loss or delay of baggage in transit, personal liability cover, emergency trip extension cover as well as accidental death or disability benefits.
Plus, with Digit you can avail the following benefits as well:
You can avail a sum insured of USD 50,000 (MOP 4,03,992.30) with a nominal premium of USD 2.77 (MOP 22.38) (excl. 18% GST) per day for one traveller.
So, doesn’t availing the Macau travel insurance policy seem like a good idea?
Make sure you purchase it before your trip commences to make sure that you are financially secure during your Macau travels.
