We carried out a spectroscopic and photometric study of the 8 presently known B[e] -stars of the Magellanic Clouds (MC), i. e. R4 and R50 of the SMC, R66, R82, R126, Hen S12, Hen S22 and Hen S134 of the LMC. These stars are characterized by the following typical properties: a) strong Balmer emission lines, frequently with P Cygni profiles, b) permitted and forbidden emission lines predominantly of Fe II, [Fe II], [O I] etc., c) strong IR excess due to circumstellar dust. Photospheric absorption lines are usually weak or even not detectable.
