There are several types of Malaysian visas

The five major differences between Malaysian visas

Tourists entering Malaysia need to hold a valid passport with a personal validity period of at least 6 months, and a valid Malaysian visa with a validity period of 3 months and a maximum stay of 30 days.

?Application materials:

1. Original passport and 2 copies;

5. Bank deposit certificate or statement application fee: visa fee 80 + visa center service fee 400 (single entry) (0 (multiple entries)) Visa issuance time: 3-5 Suggestions for working days: Suitable for children who don’t know how to apply online

Transit visa

If Chinese tourists go to a third country in any country or region, enter and stay at the designated transit visa port in Malaysia, If the duration exceeds 120 hours, you can apply for a transit visa.

? Visa details:

1. Transit visas can only be applied for at the two airports in Kuala Lumpur, KLIA and KLIA2.

2. You must enter Kuala Lumpur by air and leave by air within 120 hours, and provide relevant proof (ticket order)

3. Go to a third country for the purpose of transit in Kuala Lumpur

4. The passport must be valid for more than 6 months when applying.

? Notes:

1. In principle, you are only allowed to stay in Kuala Lumpur, but since there is no border from Kuala Lumpur to West Malaysia. Therefore, it is not a big problem to travel to various places in West Malaysia during the transit visa period. However, it is not allowed to travel from West Malaysia to East Malaysia with a transit visa. If you want to enter East Malaysia, you may encounter trouble. For East Malaysia, it is recommended to apply for a Malaysian visa.

2. If you already hold a valid and unused Malaysian visa, you will usually be refused to apply for a transit visa.

3. Since China’s border inspection only applies. 72 hours are accepted, so if you depart from China, please try to keep the transfer time to less than 72 hours instead of 120 hours. If you want to visit Malaysia more, you can consider staying within 120 hours on your return.

Application materials:

1. Get a transit visa application form when entering the country

2. Bring the completed transit visa application form, passport, and ticket order to leave Kuala Lumpur within 120 hours to transit Apply at the visa counter (TRANSITPASS).

eVISA (electronic visa)

Malaysia. The opening of electronic visas for Chinese passports was implemented around New Year's Day this year. It was free before the end of March and allowed to enter and stay for 30 days. Then another country appeared in the vast travel circle.

However, After seeing the specific details, I found that the so-called electronic visa originally only simplified one application step. Although the visa fee of 80 yuan was waived, there was still a 50 yuan express fee and a 10 yuan convenience fee. You still need to send your passport to the consulate and then back!!!!!

? Application steps

ENTRI visa (visa-free program)

Finally speaking of this The magical ENTRI (electronic travel registration and

information). Malaysia launched ENTRI on March 1 only for Chinese tourists.

You only need to fill in the information required for registration on the official ENTRI application website, print out the immigration paper, and then you can go!

This magical ENTRI (electronic travel registration and

information) is not electronic Visa (Malaysian electronic visa EVISA is already in operation, which is another matter) is only electronic registration information, not a form of visa.

The Malaysian electronic visa requires verification and approval by the visa department official. The electronic visa may be rejected, but ENTRI does not require permission from the visa department and can just print it out directly, so it will not Rejection of a visa is equivalent to visa exemption.

4. Application fee: The visa fee is free. When registering information online, you need to pay an online operation fee of US$20.

5. Since the ENRTI application will not pass the visa review, it has been For children's shoes that are included in the "blacklist" of entry by Malaysian customs, if you bring the ENTRI paper directly to Malaysia, the customs may refuse entry.
