The 2018 FIA GT World Cup (formally the SJM Macau GT Cup – FIA GT World Cup) was a Grand Touring (GT) sports car race held on the Guia Circuit in the Chinese Special Administrative Region of Macau on 18 November. It was the event's fourth annual edition eleventh GT3 car race in Macau. Only platinum and gold drivers were allowed to compete, but silver drivers were eligible on a case by case basis at the FIA GT World Cup Committee's discretion. The Stéphane Ratel Organisation, in collaboration with the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), promoted the race. The event was made up of two races: a 12-lap qualifying race to set the 18-lap main race's starting grid.
Augusto Farfus of BMW Team Schnitzer won the main race from pole position in a BMW M6 GT3. After winning the Qualification Race the afternoon before, Farfus led every lap of the main race to achieve his fourth Macau victory and his first since the 2009 Guia Race of Macau. BMW became the third manufacturer to win the race. Mercedes-AMG Team GruppeM Racing's Maro Engel finished second, and his teammate Edoardo Mortara finished third.
