Overview

Multiple-entry visa for business travelers and government officials, allowing 30-day stays per entry with 3–12 month validity.

The Malaysia Multiple Entry Visa (MEV) allows foreign nationals to enter and exit Malaysia multiple times within a single validity period (3–12 months; up to 1 year for India/PRC nationals) without reapplying for each trip. Designed for business travelers, medical tourists, and frequent visitors, it streamlines travel for those with ongoing professional or personal ties to Malaysia.

Each entry permits 30-day stays. eVisa processing takes 2 working days; traditional applications 3–5 days. Applications available via the official eVisa portal. The MEV cannot be extended; subsequent visits require a new application. No work authorization is granted.

This visa is ideal for business professionals with regular Malaysia ties, patients seeking recurring medical treatment, and regional travelers using Malaysia as a Southeast Asia hub.
