E-Visa

  • Malaysia e-Visa for Indian passport holders, available through Oxford Travels, is an online tourist visa facility that allows travelers to visit Malaysia for short-term tourism purposes without visiting any embassy or consulate. The visa is generally issued as a single-entry visa, permitting a stay of up to 30 days per visit, and is usually valid for around 90 days from the date of issue, meaning travelers must enter Malaysia within this validity period.
  • The entire application process is done online through Oxford Travels, making it convenient and time-saving. Applicants are required to submit a valid passport with at least 6 months validity, a recent passport-size photograph, confirmed flight tickets, and hotel accommodation details or travel itinerary. In some cases, additional documents may be requested depending on immigration requirements.
  • Once the application is submitted and payment is completed, the processing time typically takes around 2 to 5 working days, though it may vary depending on the application volume or verification needs. After approval, the e-Visa is sent directly to the applicant’s registered email address, and it must be printed and carried during travel for immigration checks upon arrival in Malaysia.
  • The visa fee depends on service charges and processing speed selected, and it is generally non-refundable even if the visa is rejected. Approval is strictly subject to the discretion of Malaysian immigration authorities, and meeting minimum document requirements does not guarantee visa approval.
  • Overall, the Malaysia e-Visa via Oxford Travels is a simple and efficient option for Indian tourists looking to travel for holidays, sightseeing, or short visits, offering a fully digital process with quick turnaround time and minimal paperwork.

09 What is the pet policy for entering Malaysia?
Relocating with a pet to Malaysia requires careful planning and adherence to specific regulations. Key considerations include:

  • Mandatory Quarantine: Upon arrival, your pet will undergo a minimum seven-day quarantine.
  • Extended Quarantine: The quarantine period can be extended up to six months based on a risk assessment.

  • Microchipping: While not mandatory, microchipping your pet is strongly recommended.
10 Can I work with MDAC in Malaysia?
The MDAC is primarily intended for tourism and short-term stays, and is not suitable for employment in Malaysia. The advisory emphasises the need to remain vigilant and "avoid being cheated by fraudulent agents who promise employment in this scheme."
11 Do Indians need a visa to visit Malaysia?
No, Indians don't need a visa to visit Malaysia for up to 30 days. However, Indian visitors to Malaysia need a mandatory Malaysia Digital Arrival Card (MDAC)—the Department of Immigration issues this permit, which can be processed online.
12 What is the duration of the stay for the Malaysia Digital Arrival Card?
The visa-free policy allows Indian passport holders to stay in Malaysia for up to 30 days. The MDAC will be valid for a single entry, allowing a 30-day stay in the country.
13 Can Indians apply for a visa upon arrival in Malaysia?
Indian nationals travelling to Malaysia will need an MDAC beforehand to visit the country. If you meet the specific eligibility criteria, including entering Malaysia from Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, or Brunei, you can apply for a Malaysia visa on arrival.
14 What do I do when my Malaysia visa expires?
Indians can stay in Malaysia for 30 days with MDAC, but if their MDAC expires soon, they must return home as they cannot extend their stay. 
15 Can I edit my Malaysia digital arrival card?
No. You must resubmit a new MDAC form with the correct information.
16 What are the MDAC eligibility criteria for Indians?
Although there are no rules and regulations for the MDAC, allowing Indian passport holders to visit and stay in Malaysia, there are certain things that the Immigration Officer might check:

  • sufficient funds for the visit
  • verifiable proof of accommodation
  • valid return air tickets
If the Immigration Officer is not satisfied with the proof, they may place the traveller in the 'Not To Land' (NTL) category, despite having a valid MDAC.
