Government’s Reminders
- Considering most residents are using RAT for the first time and may be unfamiliar with the reporting method, whether the result is reported this time does not affect the access permission of the user. However, those who fail to register the result on the online platform are requested to keep a record of the test result for future reference.
- The Centre reminds that the sampling procedures of RAT test kits may vary slightly from one brand to another. Users are advised to read the kit instructions before use, and carry out the test accordingly. Members of the public should assist family members in need in reporting test result through the Macao Health Code.

Travel Record Risk Check Function of the Macao Health Code Has Been Activated
The Novel Coronavirus Response and Coordination Centre stated that the new coronavirus spreads rapidly. If you have visited the same venue as COVID-19 confirmed cases at almost the same time, you will be at risk of being infected. Residents can compare their own travel record with that of the COVID-19 confirmed cases by using the travel record risk check function of the Macau Health Code Mobile Application. If residents’ local travel history has overlapped with that of COVID-19 confirmed cases, the residents will be regarded as having a risk of infection. Their health code will be automatically converted to a yellow code (code 2) and they need to take the nucleic acid testing as required.

Local travel history of some COVID-19 confirmed cases has been uploaded into the system. Residents can conduct automatic or manual risk checks through the Macau Health Code Application. In the event of having overlap of travel history, residents will receive an SMS notification for epidemic control issued by the Health Bureau and their Macao Health Code will be automatically converted to a yellow code (code 2) for a period of 4 days. Within 4 days, counting from the first day when the yellow code is set, the residents need to take 2 nucleic acid tests; the 2 tests need to be taken on different days.
