Estatuto Orgânico de Macau

The Estatuto Orgânico de Macau (abbreviated EOM; Portuguese for Organic Statute of Macau) was an organic statute (Law No. 1/76) that provided for government in Portuguese Macau. Approved on February 17, 1976, the Portuguese legislation reclassified Macau as a "Chinese territory under Portuguese administration" (território chinês sob administração portuguesa).

The Organic Statute was successively amended by Law No. 53/79 of 14 September 1979; Law No. 13/90 of 10 May 1990; and Law No. 23-A/96 of 29 July 1996.

On December 20, 1999, the Organic Statute was replaced by the Macau Basic Law, as the territory became a Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China.
