Booking links: https://eservice.ssm.gov.mo/rnatestbook/V21/ or https://app.ssm.gov.mo/prsranbook/Booking/Booking?lang=ch or https://app.ssm.gov.mo/airportprsrnabook.

The public are urged to undergo NAT sampling at nearby stations. Avoid using public transport for collective use. Maintain a distance of one metre when waiting for sampling and follow the staff’s instructions.

  1. Take a look at the up-to-date situation at NAT stations before going out for sampling

To optimize crowd management, the booking system for citywide NAT operates on the basis of sampling stations which enables accurate control of users; real-time waiting information (namely no. of sampling booths in each testing station, no. of people waiting, expected waiting time, and no. of bookings) at different stations will be disseminated once every 4 hours by diversified means.

Expected waiting time will be shown in three colours:

  1. Green colour indicates expected waiting time of less than 30 minutes
  2. Yellow colour indicates expected waiting time between 31 to 59 minutes
  3. Red colour indicates expected waiting time of 60 minutes or more.

The public are urged to book and take the test as soon as possible, take a look at the latest waiting situation before setting out for sampling, and adjust arrangement according to real-time situation.

  1. Arrangements for people with yellow or red codes

Yellow code holders (including infants and children born after 1 July 2019) should participate in the citywide NAT drive, and may get tested at the testing stations; yellow code holder may re-do NAT on the second day for compliance with the anti-epidemic requirements, but prior booking is still required.

Red code holders are required to take the test at designated sampling stations. If developing fever or other symptoms, medical attention should be sought by using an ambulance.

The Citywide NAT results of yellow code holders and key groups will also be counted towards the number of tests required by the health authorities, so it is not necessary to repeat the test.

  1. No exemption period, yellow code will be assigned to people who remain untested after the period

The 7th to 10th rounds of Citywide NAT do not have an exemption period. Individuals in Macao who remain untested after 18:00 on the second day of each round (i.e. 11, 13, 15 and 17 July) will be assigned a yellow health code. According to relevant regulations, yellow code holders are not allowed to enter public places, take public transport or leave the city; they will be taken by the police to a designated venue to undergo sampling, and will not be allowed to leave the venue until their test returns as negative. People who refuse to take the test will be subject to medical observation at designated venue for 14 days.

  1. Free distribution of antigen test kits and KN95 face masks

In round 8 of the Citywide NAT, each participating resident will be given 5 rapid antigen tests; in round 9, each resident will be given 10 pieces of KN95 face masks; and in round 10, each resident will be given 5 rapid antigen test kits.

For infants and children who are exempted from the citywide NAT, their parents or guardian may collect the materials on their behalf by presenting the Macao Health Code of the concerned infants and children for registration. Please remember to collect the materials as re-collection would not be available.

  1. Daily rapid antigen self-test

During the period from 10 July to 17 July, the public are required to take a rapid antigen self-test every day. Even for infants and children who are exempted to participate in the citywide NAT, they are advised to take the daily RAT during this period.

Before going to the NAT stations to get tested, the public must first perform a rapid antigen test (RAT) by themselves at home. If tested negative, go to the NAT station for sampling as scheduled. Upon entry into the NAT station, present a health code containing a RAT negative result or a photo showing a RAT negative result; otherwise, such entry would be denied.

If the RAT result is positive, regardless of whether you have fever, respiratory symptoms or other discomfort, you should call an ambulance (Tel: 119, 120 or 2857 2222) and reporting the result through Macao Health Code. The declarant and the co-living individuals must stay home and wait patiently for being transferred to the quarantine site by the designated ambulance. Relevant nucleic acid testing will be arranged for all of them by the authorities.

While waiting for transferal, the concerned residents are reminded to pay attention to the followings:

  1. Wear a mask properly, stay home and wait for transferal to quarantine station.
  2. Do not go out, and avoid taking public transport;
  3. While home, stay in an isolated room if possible. Avoid contact with people living together;
