The 60-second version
Macau exit needs employer settlement, FSS tax compliance letter, and work permit cancellation. I wire MOP/HKD to NRE and map RNOR for gaming and tourism payroll.
FSS final salaries tax reconciliation before work permit cancellation
Macau taxes residents on worldwide income with progressive salaries tax — obtain FSS clearance before departure.
Gaming, hospitality, and construction payroll dominate — retain employer tax withholding summary.
HK neighbour: Hong Kong return guide if you also held MPF account.
