How we know this

Every layer this corpus carries, whether it exists for Macao, how many records, how each is graded and when it was last looked at. The record rather than the data — enough to check a claim before relying on it.

Global Operating Calendar

Macao beside every other market you work in — the weeks that work everywhere, where office hours overlap, and which dates are estimates rather than facts.

Open the Operating Calendar

The same dossier exists for all 241 jurisdictions, priced by depth rather than by which country it is — browse the dossiers.

We do not promise a calendar that never changes. Dates move: authorities declare holidays at short notice and publish corrections of their own. Every record here shows what stands behind it, and when a date changes we correct it, publish it, and tell the people it affects.
