353,000 weekly visas issued for Zhuhai residents travelling to Macau

Mainland Chinese authorities issued a total of 353,000 visas in the first nine months of 2025 for Zhuhai residents to make weekly visits to Macau, underscoring efforts to deepen integration between the two sides and bolster the city’s tourism recovery, the Chinese National Immigration Administration said on Thursday.

The remarks were made during a press conference, where officials highlighted a significant uptick in mainland tourist flows to both Macau and Hong Kong this year, according to China News Service.

In addition, around 29,000 multiple-entry visas were granted to mainland tourists with household registration or residence permits in Hengqin, allowing for more frequent travel to Macau, the state news agency reported.

“More and more mainland residents are opting for ‘multiple-entry’ and ‘one trip per week’ permits [to visit Macau],” the National Immigration Administration was quoted as saying.

The visa policy changes, implemented in 2025, marked a departure from previous regulations under which Zhuhai residents could only apply for a Macau visa once every two months.

As a result of the new measures, the number of mainland residents travelling to Macau rose 24.4 percent year-on-year, reaching a daily average of 56,000 in the first nine months of the year, according to mainland authorities.

Nonetheless, Macau’s government data shows a slightly different picture. The number of mainland Chinese visitors reached 19.59 million in the first eight months of 2025, a year-on-year increase of 18.9 percent, or a daily average of 79,955. The reason for the discrepancy between the two datasets remains unclear.

Boost tourism

“The increase in mainland Chinese visitation to Hong Kong and Macau has further boosted confidence in the local tourism markets, driving growth in hotel stays, dining, and retail consumption,” the National Immigration Administration said on Thursday.

“According to relevant departments in Hong Kong and Macau, hotel occupancy rates exceeded 90 percent during holidays, while revenue in the retail and food and beverage sectors rose by over 20 percent,” it added.

Looking ahead, Chinese authorities pledged to continue enhancing immigration policy and services to support regional development.

“We will continue to advance innovation in immigration management and services to further promote people-to-people exchanges and deeper integration between the mainland and Hong Kong and Macau, supporting the two regions in better aligning with the country’s overall development strategy,” the National Immigration Administration added.

Dados da Direcção dos Serviços de Estatística e Censos mostram que o número de turistas continua a aumentar em Macau de uma forma geral, com destaque para o crescimento de 63 por cento em Abril, em termos anuais, dos visitantes de Zhuhai. As estatísticas revelam ainda um aumento do número de turistas internacionais

 

O sector do turismo está bom e recomenda-se. É o que mostram os dados mais recentes divulgados pela Direcção dos Serviços de Estatística e Censos (DSEC) que indicam um aumento de visitantes de uma forma global, mas sobretudo dos que chegam de Zhuhai.

Este aumento deve-se, segundo a DSEC, ao facto de “o número de entradas de visitantes provenientes de Zhuhai ter crescido 63 por cento”. Registaram-se ainda aumentos inferiores de 13,4 por cento para os visitantes oriundos de Hong Kong, no total de 659.844, e de 4,4 por cento para os turistas de Taiwan, com o total de 76.721, também em relação a Abril de 2024.

New multi-entry arrangement for Zhuhai

dec24 Zona Norte Davis Fong espera impacto económico positivo O ex-deputado e académico Davis Fong considera que os negócios na Zona Norte da cidade, principalmente os que se situam mais perto das Portas do Cerco, vão ser os principais beneficiados pelo facto dos residentes de Zhuhai e Hengqin passarem a ter a possibilidade de vir a Macau todas as semanas. Ouvido pelo jornal Ou Mun, o ex-deputado explicou que com a nova medida do Interior, milhões de pessoas de Zhuhai podem visitar semanalmente Macau. Por isso, Davis Fong diz que vai haver um consumo muito maior na Zona Norte, como afirmou ter acontecido em Hong Kong, antes da pandemia, quando as pessoas de Shenzhen foram autorizadas pelo Governo Central a ir à RAEHK mais vezes. No entanto, Davis Fong avisou que a medida não vai ter um grande impacto nas receitas do jogo, porque considerou que os turistas de Zhuhai que querem jogar conseguiram, anteriormente, encontrar outras formas de visitar regularmente a RAEM.
