===Macau===
The [[Portuguese Macau]] government seldom interfered in the affairs of Chinese society, including with regard to regulations on the practice of TCM. There were a few TCM pharmacies in Macau during the colonial period. In 1994, the Portuguese Macau government published Decree-Law no. 53/94/M that officially started to regulate the TCM market. After the sovereign handover, the Macau S.A.R. government also published regulations on the practice of TCM.{{Clarify|date=January 2022}} In 2000, [[Macau University of Science and Technology]] and [[Nanjing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine]] established the Macau College of Traditional Chinese Medicine to offer a degree course in Chinese medicine.<ref>{{Cite news |script-title=zh:澳门的高等中医药教育|url=https://eic.tjutcm.edu.cn/info/1005/1140.htm|publisher=世界中医药教育|date=2013-04-19|access-date=1 June 2021|archive-date=6 June 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210606022709/https://eic.tjutcm.edu.cn/info/1005/1140.htm|url-status=dead}}</ref>

In 2022, a new law regulating TCM, Law no. 11/2021, came into effect. The same law also repealed Decree-Law no. 53/94/M.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Lei n.º 11/2021|url=https://bo.io.gov.mo/bo/i/2021/30/lei11.asp|access-date=2022-01-08|website=|language=pt|via=Imprensa Oficial|archive-date=8 January 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220108094729/https://bo.io.gov.mo/bo/i/2021/30/lei11.asp|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=Special Report – Traditional Chinese Medicine – Breathing a new life|url=https://www.macaubusiness.com/special-report-traditional-chinese-medicine-breathing-a-new-life/|access-date=2022-01-08|website=|date=31 December 2021|language=en|via=Macau Business|archive-date=24 February 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220224081010/https://www.macaubusiness.com/special-report-traditional-chinese-medicine-breathing-a-new-life/|url-status=live}}</ref>
