(Macau).- Visitor arrivals to Macau in September 2021 grew 40.1% year-on-year and 53.7% compared with August to 629,085, boosted by temporarily eased border restrictions with mainland China.
According to information from the Statistics and Census Service (DSEC), the number of same-day visitors in September reached 348,058, up 20.2% year-on-year, while overnight visitors were 281,027, up 76.1%.
The vast majority of those visitors, 583,056, arrived from mainland China while 178,325 traveled under the Individual Visit Scheme. Visitors from the nine Pearl River Delta cities in the Greater Bay Area totalled 339,636, of which 55.4% came from Zhuhai.
There were also 582,909 arrivals by land with three quarters of those entering Macau via the Border Gate, while only 31,855 arrived by plane and 14,321 by ferry.
For the first nine months of 2021 combined, visitor arrivals grew by 43.2% year-on-year to 5,755,528. The average length of stay in that time increased by 0.2 days to 1.6 days.
Despite the September increase, it is expected that October will show a massive decline after another COVID-19 outbreak saw mandatory quarantine requirements imposed for the first three weeks of the month on anyone entering Zhuhai from Macau.
