VISA:
While there are several citizens who can travel to Malaysia visa free, many foreign nationals are required to obtain a tourist visa to enter the country. The Government of Malaysia introduced an electronic visa system on March 2017 to simplify the process of obtaining a visa to travel to and around Malaysia.
The tourist eVisa for Malaysia and the eNTRI online visa were both implemented to promote tourism and encourage foreign nationals to visit this beautiful country.
Citizens of the following eligible countries can easily obtain their Malaysia tourist visa through an online form.
Malaysia Tourist Visa | Malaysia My VisaNationals of these countries can apply for their tourist visa from anywhere in the world, except while being in Malaysia or Singapore.
The approved tourist eVisa for Malaysia will be sent to the applicant's email. The traveler can print it out to present upon arrival.
The Malaysia tourist visa holder can stay in Malaysia for a period of up to 30 days. The tourist eVisa for Malaysia also allows multiple entries into the country.
All notifications and updates will be sent to the applicant by email. It is therefore absolutely essential that applicants provide a functional email address so that they can be properly kept fully up to date with the application process. The majority of applications for the tourist visa are processed within 1 business day, and as soon as an application has been approved the traveler will be notified immediately.
