The visa policy of Malaysia consists of the requirements for foreign nationals to travel to, enter, and remain in Malaysia. Most visitors to Malaysia are granted visa-free entry for a period of 90, 30, or 14 days respectively. However, nationals from some countries must first obtain a visa from one of the Malaysian diplomatic missions around the world before being allowed into the country.

## Entry requirements

[edit]

All visitors to Malaysia must:[1]

* hold a passport, passport replacing document or a travel document valid for at least 6 months[3] upon arrival;[1]
* hold a return ticket;[1]
* not be an illegal immigrant;[1]
* have sufficient funds for the duration of stay in Malaysia;[1]
* have a visa[1] and/or a yellow fever vaccination certificate[4] (if applicable).

### Malaysia Digital Arrival Card (MDAC)

[edit]

Before entering Malaysia, all travellers, except

* citizens of Singapore; and
* diplomatic and official passport holders, regardless of nationality; and
* residents (Malaysian citizens, Permanent Residents and Long-Term Pass holders); and
* holders of a Bruneian General Certificate of Identity (GCI); and
* users of the "Brunei-Malaysia Frequent Travel Facility"; and
* holders of a border pass issued by Thailand; and
* holders of an Indonesian cross-border travel document (PLB);

are required to submit a Malaysia Digital Arrival Card (MDAC) online to Malaysia immigration.[5]

The electronic Malaysia Digital Arrival Card must be submitted within three days before the date of arrival in Malaysia.[5]

However, Malaysian authorities have warned that visitors should be vigilant against fraudulent websites that impersonate the official MDAC website, as such fraudulent websites may lead to scam and personal data breach.[6][7] The registration for MDAC is completely free of charge.[8]
