Details of the Malaysia Visa
A Malaysia visa for Indian citizens is required for tourism, business, or short visits and is typically issued as an e-Visa or eNTRI (Electronic Travel Registration & Information). The e-Visa allows stays of up to 30 days and is valid for single or multiple entries, depending on the visa type. The application is done online, and the approved visa is issued digitally, which must be printed and carried while traveling. Processing usually takes 1–3 working days. Although a visa is required to enter Malaysia, final entry approval is granted by immigration authorities upon arrival. Travelers must ensure valid passport, confirmed return tickets, accommodation proof, and sufficient funds during their stay.
