Macao keeps its own trademark register under the Macao Industrial Property Code; a mark registered in mainland China does not cover Macao and must be applied for and registered in Macao.
Only one class may be claimed per application, so a mark for several classes needs separate applications.
Applicants without a Macao SAR resident identity card or a company registered in Macao act through a lawyer registered with the Macao Lawyers Association, a Macao resident or a Macao-registered company, appointed by power of attorney.

International

Macao is not a member of the Madrid Protocol, so an international registration through WIPO cannot designate it.
