FAQ

Do you need a visa? If you have a US passport you don't need a visa for Hong Kong or Macau for a stay less than 90 days.
Do you need Macanese currency (Patacas)? No. Hong Kong Dollars are taken everywhere. Once you land in Hong Kong you can pull Hong Kong Dollars from a cash machine.
Is this a "boys only" trip? Not at all. Significant others are welcome.
Is this trip tax-deductible? It IS a corporate retreat for InterTrauma. So, the answer is........ask your accountant.
Do I need to bring a tuxedo all the way to Macau? Yes, because we will be taking photos at Studio City. Worst case, bring a black suit and a black bowtie. It's like a wedding, and you are all in the wedding party.
