Malaysia Visa

Malaysia's Visa Types

When planning your trip to Malaysia, understanding the visa options is key. The Malaysian government offers different visa types depending on why you are visiting and how long you plan to stay. Traveriya can help you with the application process for these visas.

Here are the main types of Malaysia visas Traveriya can assist you with:

• eVISA (Electronic Visa): This is a convenient option applied for online.
  • Single Entry Visa (SEV): This visa is typically valid for three months from the date it’s issued and allows one entry into Malaysia for a stay of up to 30 days. It’s suitable for those traveling for tourism or other short visits.
  • Multiple Entry Visa (MEV): This visa allows for several entries into Malaysia. Its validity can range from 3 to 12 months, and sometimes even up to 5 years for frequent business travelers. Each individual stay is usually limited to 30 days. This is often chosen by business travelers or those who plan to visit Malaysia more than once.
• Sticker Visa (Applied at Embassy/Consulate/VFS): This is a traditional visa that gets placed in your passport. It is typically sought for longer stays, specific travel purposes like working or long-term study, or if a physical visa in your passport is a requirement.

Traveriya works to guide you through the requirements for each of these visa types, helping to ensure your application is prepared and submitted accurately.
