Important Policy Reminder
Malaysia continues to welcome Chinese tourists with a visa-free policy, but the latest regulations from the Immigration Department require all travelers to complete the MDAC electronic entry card before entering the country. This allows for 30 days of visa-free travel.
Remember, visa-free does not mean you can enter without any formalities. Filling out the entry card in advance is mandatory. Without it, entry will be denied!
This guide includes a Chinese translation, walking you through the process of filling out the entry card. The fully Chinese version at the end of the image makes it even more straightforward and convenient.
You can also fill out the entry cards for your family and friends at the same time. Check the detailed instructions in the image!

Good to know that Malaysia is still open for visa-free travel. Just double-checked the MDAC entry card process—filling it out feels like a small step, but it’s clearly non-negotiable. I hope this rule is clearly communicated at airports and online to avoid confusion for travelers.
