A blog article exploring the topic of whether Malaysia would give Indian citizens the Malaysian Indian visa.
What is a Malaysian Visa?
Malaysian citizens can apply for a visa to India through the Malaysian embassy in their respective countries. The visa application process is straightforward and can be completed in a few simple steps.
The minimum age for a Malaysian citizen applying for a visa to India is 18 years old. Citizens of other Schengen Area countries, such as Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, Luxembourg and Denmark, are also eligible to apply for a visa to India. Applicants must have an onward ticket and sufficient funds to support themselves during their stay in India. INDIAN VISA FOR MALAYSIAN CITIZENS
Generally speaking, the Indian visa may be issued within a week or two after application submission is complete. However, depending on the workload of the embassy at that time and other factors outside of the embassy’s control, processing times can range from several weeks to several months.
Malaysia to Give The Malaysian Indian Visa?
Malaysia is the only Southeast Asian country that allows Indian citizens to stay for longer than 30 days without a visa. Indian citizens living in Malaysia can apply for a Malaysian Indian visa online or at any Malaysian embassy or consulate abroad. The Malaysian Indian visa entitles the holder to stay in Malaysia for up to three months and work without a permit.
The Malaysian government has announced that it will start issuing Malaysian Indian visas from January 1, 2019. This change is intended to help address the high number of tourists from India who visit Malaysia but do not have valid visas. In 2018, more than 2 million Indians visited Malaysia, most of whom came for tourism.
Will the Norwegian Visa be Given to Malaysians?
Malaysian citizens who want to visit Norway must first obtain a visa. The Norwegian visa is valid for 30 days and can be obtained from the nearest Norwegian embassy or consulate. Malaysian citizens who hold a valid Malaysian passport and have no criminal record will be able to travel to Norway without a visa. Malaysians must also meet certain other requirements, such as having sufficient funds to cover their expenses while in Norway and being of good health. If all of these requirements are met, the Norwegian embassy or consulate should issue the visa. INDIAN VISA FOR NORWEGIAN CITIZENS
Conclusion
Malaysia is a country that welcomes immigrants, and it has been known to be quite accommodating when it comes to granting visas. However, as of now, there is no news reports indicating that Malaysia will start issuing Malaysian Indian visa to Malayian citizens. If you are an Indian citizen who wants to visit Malaysia, I advise you to check with the Malaysian embassy in your home country about the current situation. Also, keep in mind that if you do not have a valid visa for Malaysia, you might not be allowed into the country at all.
