You are required to make an application for renewal of the Residence Authorization in the first 60 days of the 120 days before its expiry. Application can still be made after the above period by paying a fee (MOP2000 in the first 30 days, MOP5000 in the next 30 days). Failure to renew the Residence Authorization within the above period will result in its extinguishment as the Residence Authorization expires and becomes invalid. In addition, you will be deprived of the successive time counted for the purpose of obtaining permanent resident status. |
