Process For Malaysia Visa Online

Large (tour) groups are not eligible to apply for a multiple entry visa, so it is better for each individual in your group to apply separately.

Actually, Malaysia does not offer a business visa - they only offer a single-entry and multiple-entry visa, with the explicit stating of multiple entry visas being for those who “require a visa to enter Malaysia mainly for business or government-to-government matters”. Therefore, if you will only enter once, it is possible to apply for a single-entry visa - keeping in mind that your trip must be only for business meeting, discussion, negotiation etc., and you are not engaging in any employment (paid or unpaid).

You must choose one passport to apply for the visa, and must travel with the same passport. Inconsistencies between your travel document (passport) and the information you provide in your visa application will not be tolerated.

Those who hold Indian diplomatic/official passports do not require a (business/any other) visa to visit Malaysia.

The Transit Without Visa (TWOV) is applicable for a stop-over of up to 120 hours after clearing Malaysian Immigration. It is worth noting that the granting of a Transit without Visa (TWOV) is solely at the discretion of the Malaysian Immigration, even if guest(s) meet all the prerequisite criteria.

Eligible countries include:

Indian Subcontinent

Other Countries

There is a similar option called an eNTRI visa, that allows for you to gain a travel eNTRI document online, that you show to the Immigration Officals upon landing. It can be said that it is somewhere between an e-visa and a visa on-arrival, and is only available for Indian and Chinese nationals currently.

Yes, you can. Malaysia does offer an e-visa service to nationals of China, India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Myanmar, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Bhutan, Serbia, and Montenegro. You cannot apply for it if you are in Malaysia, Singapore or Israel at the time of application.

It will take around 48 hours (~2 days) to obtain the final visa. After getting the visa, you will need to print it out (either in colour or black and white) on an A4 sheet.

Indian nationals can apply for a multiple entry e-visa. This cannot be extended. Other nationals can apply for a multiple-entry visa, however, not an e-visa.

Yes. You can do so – both versions are accepted.

A Malaysia visa for Indians (in case you opted for an e-visa) is valid for 30 days. You will be subject to detainment and fines if you do not adhere to this.

It is advised to start processing your visa 2 weeks prior to your travel dates. This way, you will not have to forego more losses if it is declined (will have enough time to apply for it again).

These differ based on your nationality and the kind of visa you are applying for. Our website page for Malaysia visa has all the information on the fees for a regular tourist, business and transit visa.

It takes approximately 4-6 weeks to obtain your VAL Student Pass. You will need your official transcripts and admission letter before you start this process.

You will need a regular tourist visa to visit them. If you are an Indian or Chinese national, you can opt for the eNTRI facility as well.

No. You will have to be outside the country if you want to apply for an e-visa to travel to Malaysia.

Yes. You do not need a Malaysia tourist visa if you are an Indian or Chinese national – the eNTRI visa will suffice.

The website of the Consulate General of Malaysia (in Chennai) states that if your trip is only for business meeting, discussion, negotiation etc. (as long as the visit does not cover any paid or unpaid employment), you may enter the country by using tourist visa.

No. You will not be able to engage in any paid or unpaid work on this visa. For work, you will need to apply for a Malaysia working visa.
