Mainland, Macau mutually recognise driving licences
The Ministry of Public Security (MPS) and Macau authorities have signed an agreement to enable mutual recognition and exchanges of driving licences between the mainland and the SAR. Under the deal, which takes effect on May 16, the mainland and Macau will allow individuals holding valid driving licences issued by authorities from each side to drive directly or obtain driving permits on the other side without an additional test, according to the MPS. The agreement will facilitate travel of residents in the Greater Bay Area and enhance the development of the region, the MPS said. A driving licence mutual recognition mechanism is currently in place between the mainland and Hong Kong, according to the MPS.  The ministry added that it will further facilitate travel between the mainland and the two SARs. (Xinhua)
