## Important general notes

- Every Nepali-language document MUST be accompanied by a certified English translation — embassies will reject untranslated originals. Where this page's destination notes ask for an apostille or a specific translator, follow those notes; otherwise a translation notarised by a Notary Public is the usual standard.
- CRITICAL: Nepali ordinary passport holders CANNOT obtain Visa-on-Arrival in Macau — Nepal has been on the Macau VOA-exclusion list since 1 July 2010 (along with Bangladesh, Nigeria, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Vietnam). Visa MUST be obtained in advance via the Chinese diplomatic mission abroad.
- For Nepalis, the only application route is CVASC Kathmandu (Rising Mall, Kamaladi) — Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday only, 09:00–15:00.
- Macau visa is a SEPARATE authorisation from a Chinese mainland visa. Holding a Chinese L visa does NOT cover Macau and vice versa — apply for both separately if visiting both.
- Diplomatic / official Nepali passport holders: visa-free for stays up to 14 days.
- Maximum stay: 30 days from date of entry, single entry standard.
- Visa fees collected by Macau PSP at port / via consulate.
- Ports of entry: Macau International Airport (MFM), Outer Harbour Ferry Terminal, Taipa Ferry Terminal, Border Gate (Portas do Cerco), Cotai Frontier Post, Hong Kong–Zhuhai–Macau Bridge.
- Photo: 48 × 33 mm, white background, recent (within 6 months).
- For long-stay (work / study / family), apply at Macau Identification Department after sponsor approval — separate from this short-stay flow.
