Macao

Yes, but with caution — Macao is moderately safe: as of July 2026 it scores 6.2/10 on our daily safety index, classified as Moderate risk. Most trips are trouble-free, but some risks deserve attention.

The score is an uncertainty-weighted (Bayesian shrinkage) geometric mean of five pillars — conflict (30%), crime (25%), health (20%), governance (15%) and environment (10%) — combined with a calibrated consensus of government travel advisories, so a weak pillar drags the overall score down more than a strong one lifts it, and thin or stale data pulls a country's score toward a cautious regional baseline rather than guessing. All five pillars score well for Macao: even the weakest, crime (7.5/10), sits in the low-risk band, with crime (7.5/10) leading.

It is recalculated every day from public sources including government travel advisories, the Global Peace Index, the INFORM Risk Index and World Bank indicators.

No pillar signals a significant risk for Macao: even its weakest area, crime, scores 7.5/10, well inside the low-risk band, and its five pillars range from 7.5/10 to 7.5/10. For travelers this means normal, common-sense precautions are enough.
