FAQs:
About the Malaysia Visa (MDAC)
What is Scapia's Visa Guarantee?
We strive to ensure every applicant gets their visa. Our expert team works closely with you, verifying your documents, submitting your application, and helping with everything needed to get your visa approved. In the rare case that your application is rejected by the immigration authority, we refund the complete fee back to you, including the embassy fee you paid.
Do Indians need a visa to visit Malaysia?
No - Indian passport holders enjoy visa-free entry to Malaysia for up to 30 days for tourism, business, and social visits. However, the Malaysia Digital Arrival Card (MDAC) is mandatory for all Indian travellers and must be completed online before arrival.
What is the Malaysia Digital Arrival Card (MDAC) and how does it work?
The MDAC is Malaysia's mandatory pre-arrival registration for all foreign visitors, including Indians. You submit it online before your trip - through Scapia - and receive a digital confirmation. There is no visa sticker or passport stamp; immigration checks your MDAC status digitally on arrival.
Is the MDAC the same as a Malaysia e-visa or tourist visa?
No - the MDAC is an arrival declaration form, not a Malaysia e-visa or tourist visa. Since Indian passport holders are visa-exempt for short visits, the MDAC is the only pre-arrival requirement. It does not grant permission to enter Malaysia by itself; it registers your arrival details with immigration in advance.
How long can Indians stay in Malaysia on the MDAC?
Indians can stay in Malaysia for up to 30 days per entry on the MDAC.
Is the MDAC single entry or multiple entry?
Single entry - each MDAC covers one trip of up to 30 days. If you exit Malaysia and wish to re-enter, a new MDAC must be submitted.
How long is the MDAC valid after approval?
30 days from the date of approval - you must arrive within this window.
What activities are permitted on the Malaysia MDAC?
Tourism, leisure, family visits, and short-term business activities such as meetings and conferences are permitted. Paid employment is not allowed under the MDAC.
Eligibility
Who is eligible for the Malaysia MDAC?
All Indian passport holders travelling to Malaysia are eligible, regardless of age. Indians enter visa-free and only need to complete the MDAC before arrival.
What passport validity is required for the Malaysia MDAC?
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from your date of entry into Malaysia.
Can Indians get a Malaysia visa on arrival?
Indians do not need a visa on arrival - entry is visa-free for up to 30 days. The MDAC must be completed online before travel; it cannot be done at the airport on the day of arrival.
What funds should Indians carry when entering Malaysia?
Malaysia does not mandate an official minimum bank balance.
Documents & Photo
What documents do Indians need to apply for the Malaysia MDAC?
A scanned copy of your passport - front and back. Scapia's application form captures all trip details; no additional documents are required.
Do I need to submit my physical passport for the Malaysia MDAC?
No - a digital scan of the passport's front and back pages is all that's needed. Your physical passport stays with you.
Malaysia Visa Cost & Fees
How much does the Malaysia MDAC cost for Indians?
The MDAC costs ₹99 as Scapia's service fee. The Malaysian government charges no embassy or consulate fee for the MDAC.
What is the Malaysia visa fee or e-visa fee for Indians?
Since Indians are visa-exempt, there is no Malaysia visa fee or e-visa fee. The only cost is Scapia's ₹99 service fee for submitting and managing your MDAC.
What does the MDAC fee cover?
Scapia's ₹99 covers collecting your details, submitting the MDAC within the mandatory 2-day window before your arrival, and delivering your digital confirmation.
Processing Time & Validity
How long is the MDAC valid after approval?
30 days from the date of approval - your travel must begin within this window.
What is the difference between the MDAC validity and the length of stay?
The validity period is how long after approval you can use the MDAC to enter Malaysia. The length of stay is how long you can remain once you arrive - 30 days per entry.
Can Indians enter Malaysia multiple times on the same MDAC?
No - each MDAC covers a single entry. A new MDAC must be submitted for each trip.
How to Apply
When should Indians apply for the Malaysia MDAC?
Apply on Scapia at any time before travel - Scapia automatically submits your MDAC within the mandatory 2-day window before your arrival date. You don't need to track the timing yourself.
When exactly does Scapia submit my MDAC?
Scapia submits your MDAC during the 2-day window immediately before your scheduled arrival in Malaysia. The timing is handled automatically - you just need to complete your application on Scapia in advance.
What if I make a mistake in my MDAC application?
If you spot an error before submission, update your details in the Scapia app. If the MDAC has already been submitted, contact Scapia support immediately - a fresh application will need to be filed since the MDAC cannot be edited after submission.
After Approval
What does the approved Malaysia MDAC look like?
A digital confirmation - there is no visa sticker or passport stamp. You'll receive it on the Scapia app and via email.
Where can I find my approved MDAC?
In the Scapia app or website under your active applications. It's also sent to your registered email address.
How do I check my Malaysia MDAC application status?
Check anytime on the Scapia app or website under your active applications - no need to contact support separately.
Rejection & Reapplication
What happens if my Malaysia MDAC application is rejected?
If Malaysia's immigration authority rejects your MDAC, Scapia's team will reach out to guide you on the next steps and process your refund under the Visa Guarantee.
What is Scapia's Visa Guarantee for the Malaysia MDAC?
If the immigration authority rejects your MDAC application, Scapia's Visa Guarantee covers you - you'll receive a full refund of everything you paid, including the service fee. Our team will reach out to process it.
At the Destination
What currency should Indians carry when visiting Malaysia?
Malaysia's official currency is the Malaysian Ringgit (MYR). Cards are widely accepted in Kuala Lumpur and major cities; carry some cash for local markets, taxis, and smaller establishments. For card payments, the Scapia Co-branded Credit Card charges zero forex markup - so you always pay the real exchange rate.
Can Indians work in Malaysia on the MDAC?
No - the MDAC is for tourism and short visits only. Paid work or employment is not permitted.
Do Indians need travel insurance for Malaysia?
Travel insurance is not mandatory for the MDAC, but strongly recommended to cover medical emergencies, trip cancellations, and lost baggage.
Can Indians travel freely within Malaysia on the MDAC?
Yes - Indians can travel freely throughout Peninsular Malaysia on the MDAC. Sabah and Sarawak (East Malaysia) have their own immigration controls; check the specific entry requirements for those states before you travel.
