About Us
The establishment of the Macao Post goes back to 1884.
In the early twentieth century, the former Macao Post took over the telegraph and telephone services, and was renamed as Post, Telegraph and Telephones Office (CTT), currently Post and Telecommunications. The establishment of the Macao Postal Savings also dates from this period.
Throughout its long history, CTT has taken over a number of functions and some ceased to be under its control. .
Today, we are a service endowed with legal personality and administrative, financial and patrimonial autonomy.
CTT provides public postal service as well as regulates, supervises, promotes and coordinates all activities related to the telecommunications sector in the Macao SAR. Besides, CTT also assumes the function of a credit institution.
