Indian ordinary passports: temporary social-visit exemption through 31 December 2026
Malaysia's current official guidance temporarily exempts Indian ordinary-passport holders from the otherwise visa-required/eVisa social-visit framework through 31 December 2026.
- The social-visit single-entry exemption is expressly temporary through 31 December 2026. It does not establish an exemption for a different purpose or period after that date.
- This is an ordinary-passport social-visit rule, not a rule for diplomatic, official, public-affairs, residence, work, study, long-term, transit, or special travel-document routes. MDAC remains a separate arrival declaration and admission remains discretionary.
