Indian nationals will be able to enter Malaysia without a visa as of December 1, 2023

Beginning on December 1, Malaysia will no longer require entry visas for visitors who are citizens of China and India, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. Anwar made the statement during his People’s Justice Party’s annual conference on Sunday, which was cited by the news agency. Indian and Chinese nationals are allowed to enter the country for up to 30 days without a visa. Nonetheless, security checks would be performed before granting a visa.

Malaysia has joined Sri Lanka, Vietnam, and Thailand as the fourth nation to declare visa-free travel. For economic growth, Malaysia is dependent on increased visitor numbers and their expenditure. Improved visa facilities for 2019 are planned by Anwar, who last month declared that he would like to see more visitors and investors come in, “especially from India and China”.

Vietnamese news outlet VnExpress said that earlier this month, Minister of Culture, Sports, and Tourism Nguyn Van Jung demanded short-term visa waivers for large markets like China and India to support the country’s tourism industry’s recovery. As of right now, citizens of Denmark, Finland, Germany, France, Sweden, Italy, Spain, and Denmark are able to enter Vietnam without a visa.

The government of Thailand declared in October that visitors from Taiwan and India will be able to enter the country without a visa for a six-month period beginning on November 10 and ending on May 10, 2024. “We will provide visa-free entry to India and Taiwan because a lot of their people like to travel to Thailand,” Srettha Thavis, the prime minister of Thailand.

Prior to Thailand, Sri Lanka similarly adopted a plan to offer free visas to visitors from seven nations for a five-month period ending on March 31, 2024. These nations are Indonesia, Malaysia, Japan, China, Russia, and India. According to the Sri Lankan tourism ministry, “we are expecting to increase tourist arrivals to five million over the coming years.”
