     Private cars holding valid Hong Kong quotas are permitted to access Macao multiple times via the HZMB. The 600 additional Hong Kong quotas will be allocated in accordance with the arrangement agreed upon between the governments of Hong Kong and Macao. Half of them are for company applicants, while the other half are for individual applicants. They are valid for no more than three years until November 23, 2028.

     The company quotas are open to companies registered in both Hong Kong and Macao, or companies registered in Hong Kong that are associated with another company registered in Macao. As for individual quotas, they are open to permanent residents of Hong Kong who are employed with remuneration in Macao or who have established a registered company in Macao.

     All eligible parties (except existing quota holders of Hong Kong quotas launched in April, September and November 2023, July and October 2024, and March 2025) may submit applications for the new Hong Kong quotas. Successful Hong Kong quota holders are expected to be able to travel between Hong Kong and Macao via the HZMB starting from November 24, 2025, at the earliest. The TD will arrange open applications for and reallocation of the Hong Kong quotas upon their expiry.

     Eligible applicants for Hong Kong quotas may submit their applications through the GovHK website (www.gov.hk/regularquotahkpctomacao) from 9am on September 29 to 5.15pm on October 10. To ensure the eligibility criteria are met at the time of registering for the ballot, all applicants must fill in the reference numbers of their supporting documents (including Macao Business Registration number or Non-resident Worker's Identification Card number issued by the Macao Public Security Police Force) during ballot registration starting from this round of application.
