FAQ

Do I need a visa to travel to Macau/Hong Kong/Taiwan/Japan?

Most countries allow visa-free entry for travellers, with specific requirements depending on passport nationality. It is recommended to check the destination's official immigration/border control website before departure for the latest regulations and ensure the passport has sufficient validity.

What are the local transport and mobility options?

Destinations typically have well-developed public transport networks, including underground, bus and taxi services. Purchasing stored-value transport cards (such as Macau Bus Card, Hong Kong Octopus, Taiwan EasyCard) makes using public transport convenient.

What currency is used locally?

Each region uses its local legal tender. Macau uses the Macau Pataca (MOP), Hong Kong uses the Hong Kong Dollar (HKD), Taiwan uses the New Taiwan Dollar (NTD), and Japan uses the Japanese Yen (JPY). Major shopping centres and hotels generally accept credit cards, while markets and small shops primarily deal in cash.

What are the must-try local delicacies?

Each region boasts a rich culinary heritage. Macau offers Portuguese egg tarts, pork chop buns and Macanese cuisine; Hong Kong features dim sum, roasted meats and cart noodles; Taiwan is famous for bubble tea, xiaolongbao and night market delicacies; and Japan is renowned for sushi, ramen and tempura.

What cultural etiquette should I observe when travelling?

Respecting local cultural customs is a fundamental requirement of civilised travel. Dress conservatively in religious venues, seek permission before photographing, and avoid loud talking. In Japan, specific etiquette must be observed in restaurants and public spaces, such as bowing when entering temples and removing shoes indoors.
