Malaysia entry rules for Bangladeshis
Bangladeshis traveling to Malaysia must have a valid visa. As a Bangladeshi citizen, you can apply for an electronic visa or get one through an official Malaysian mission before your trip.
What Bangladeshi citizens need to enter Malaysia?
Starting from December 2023, travelers from Bangladesh must complete the Malaysia Digital Arrival Card (MDAC) online before arriving in Malaysia. It’s best to do this at least three days before your trip. The form is in English and requires details such as full name, passport information, email, place of residence, arrival and departure dates, transportation type, and country of departure. Once submitted, a confirmation email is sent—save it as a PDF and present it at border control.
This rule doesn’t apply to transit passengers, travelers passing through Singapore without an immigration permit, permanent residents of Malaysia, or those using the Malaysian Automated Clearance System.
Malaysia visa options for Bangladeshi citizens
If you’re a Bangladeshi citizen, you can apply for a visa to Malaysia in two ways:
- At the Malaysian Consulate. Visit the consulate in your country of residence and check the official Malaysian Immigration website for more information.
- Online via eVisa. Apply for a visa digitally through the eVisa system.
eVISA in Malaysia for Bangladeshis
eVISA is an online visa application platform that helps Bangladeshi citizens obtain a Malaysian visa without going to a consulate. This system streamlines the process by issuing electronic visas to travelers.
You can apply for a Malaysia eVISA from any country except Malaysia and Singapore.
What is the validity period of a Malaysia eVISA for Bangladeshi citizens?
Bangladeshi citizens entering Malaysia with an eVISA can stay for a maximum of 30 consecutive days per visit. The allowed duration depends on the specific type of eVISA granted.
How does a single entry visa to Malaysia work for Bangladeshis?
If you’re a Bangladeshi citizen traveling to Malaysia for tourism, you can apply for a single entry visa, which grants a one-time entry into the country.
- This visa is valid for three months from the date of issue.
- If obtained online, it allows a 30-day stay for tourism or visiting family and friends.

According to Section 28 of the Road Transport Act, the owner of a foreign driver's license can drive in Malaysia, provided that the foreign driver's license is valid, supported by an English translation to avoid the language barrier and certified by the embassy of the country of origin in Malaysia. Thus, tourists can use the rights of their country for 90 days, which is the validity period of the tourist visa; however, this situation also depends on the applicants' citizenship and their country's status with the Malaysian government. However, individuals wishing to stay in Malaysia for more than 90 days for various reasons such as work or study must obtain a Malaysian driver's license, which can be obtained by attending courses and exams offered by Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan (JPJ).
- Traffic rules
- Road signs in Malaysia follow international road signs, so despite the occasional word in Malay, most foreigners should understand the basic road signs.
- The slow lane is three lanes to the left, and the fast lane is the far right lane. In a three-lane,
- you can stay in the middle lane while driving at a constant speed.
- In general, the speed limit in the city is always 60-80 km/h, but when you are on the North-South highway, the speed limit can vary from 90 to 110 km/h. You should also be aware that there are a number of strategically placed speed cameras, so please refrain from speeding.
- There are always many motorcyclists on the road, so you should always be aware of your surroundings as their safety should also be your responsibility while driving. Be careful at traffic lights, intersections, and when entering a curve or curve.
- Always remember to fasten your seat belts before driving and obey speed limits.
