Macau’s Public Security Police Force indicated that as of 11am on Friday, visitor arrivals to Macau reached 30 million for the year, representing an 8% year-on-year increase and achieving the milestone 22 days earlier than in 2025.

Among the incoming visitors, the daily average from January to August was 119,000. The single-day peak record was set on 2 May – the second day of the Labour Day holiday – reaching approximately 247,000 visitors.

Out of the 30 million visitors, approximately 21.54 million were from mainland China, accounting for 74.4% of the total and increasing by 10% year-on-year.

The number of international visitors was 1.76 million, accounting for 6.1% of the total and rising by 3.4% year-on-year, while visitors from Hong Kong accounted for 4.87 million, or 16.8%, reflecting a year-on-year decrease of 1.8%,

Arrivals from Taiwan reached 780,000, accounting for 2.7% of the total, which is a year-on-year increase of 21.7%.

Macau recorded an all-time high of 40.06 million visitor arrivals in 2025, up 14.7% on the previous year and exceeding by 1.6% the previous record of 39.4 million set in 2019.
