The Immigration Department's country table, MYVISA's specified 31-nationality eVisa framework, and the current Ministry of Foreign Affairs country-by-country visa chart together identify the exhaustive ordinary-passport framework; it is not a rule for work, study, residence, media, diplomatic, official, emergency, refugee, laissez-passer, certificate-of-identity, or other special travel documents.","Visa-free duration is nationality- and purpose-specific. This policy does not convert ASEAN arrangements, Taiwan's separate stay limit, or other shorter social-visit permissions into a uniform duration.","MDAC is a separate arrival declaration, not a visa, eVisa, ETA, entry permit, or admission guarantee. Subject to current listed exceptions, submit it within three days including the arrival date and present it with the passport to immigration.","Malaysia determines individual admissibility and issues the appropriate pass at immigration control. A person prohibited under section 8 may be refused despite a valid travel document, visa, ticket, and funds.","Social/business visits are distinct from other pass types, which must generally be applied for before entry. The visitor may not take unauthorised employment, attend school, or undertake other activity outside the authorized pass."],"sourceIds":["malaysia-immigration-visa-requirement-country","malaysia-myvisa-current-faq","malaysia-immigration-mdac-entry-requirements","malaysia-mdac-current-portal","malaysia-mfa-visa-chart-2025-special-cases"]}],"conditional":[],"sources":[{"id":"malaysia-immigration-visa-requirement-country","title":"Visa Requirement by Country","url":"https://www.imi.gov.my/index.php/en/main-services/visa/visa-requirement-by-country/","publisher":"Immigration Department of Malaysia","jurisdiction":"Malaysia","kind":"government-guidance","language":"English","reviewedAt":"2026-08-20"},{"id":"malaysia-myvisa-current-faq","title":"MYVISA Frequently Asked Questions","url":"https://malaysiavisa.imi.gov.my/faq/","publisher":"Immigration Department of Malaysia","jurisdiction":"Malaysia","kind":"official-portal","language":"English","reviewedAt":"2026-08-20"},{"id":"malaysia-immigration-mdac-entry-requirements","title":"Visitor entry requirements and Malaysia Digital Arrival Card","url":"https://www.imi.gov.my/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/2023-CR-Portal-JIM-24022023-BI.pdf","publisher":"Immigration Department of Malaysia","jurisdiction":"Malaysia","kind":"government-guidance","language":"English","reviewedAt":"2026-08-20"},{"id":"malaysia-mdac-current-portal","title":"Malaysia Digital Arrival Card","url":"https://imigresen-online.imi.gov.my/mdac/main/main","publisher":"Immigration Department of Malaysia","jurisdiction":"Malaysia","kind":"official-portal","language":"English","reviewedAt":"2026-08-20"},{"id":"malaysia-mfa-visa-chart-2025-special-cases","title":"Visa Application to Malaysia","url":"https://www.kln.gov.my/documents/34145/9828314/VISA%2BAPPLICATION%2BTO%2BMALAYSIA/8670bdf2-e24b-4f50-98a1-7915e32f47fe?version=1.0","publisher":"Ministry of Foreign Affairs Malaysia","jurisdiction":"Malaysia","kind":"government-guidance","language":"English","reviewedAt":"2026-08-20"}]}
