Why this verdict
Iraqi citizens are encoded from Macao's official PSP / gov.mo visa, entry-permit and exemption source. Source row/route: not listed as visa/entry-permit exempt and not in the advance-visa nationality group. This destination-wave matrix record is intentionally conservative: ordinary passport, short visitor travel only. Work, study, residence, employment, special authorizations, non-ordinary passports, Mainland Chinese document routes, airline handling, transfer/transit routing and Macao immigration discretion can change the practical answer. Reconfirm on the official Macao SAR source before booking.
