The Public Security Police Force of the Macao Special Administrative Region announced on November 10 that the traditional automated channels, the two-gate e-channels, at Macao checkpoints will officially open to nationals of Switzerland and Belgium on November 11, 2026, to improve immigration clearance services for international visitors.
The police force said the traditional automated channels currently serve nationals of nine countries: Australia, South Korea, Portugal, Singapore, Brazil, Germany, France, Malaysia and Spain, and will be extended to those of Switzerland and Belgium. From November 11, Swiss and Belgian nationals aged 18 or above can register in person at designated registration points with a valid passport.
