Tourism Malaysia

Tourism Malaysia is a statutory body under the Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture of Malaysia. Its mission is to promote Malaysia as the "best tourist destination" and make tourism one of the main driving forces for the country、s socio-economic development.

The focus of Tourism Malaysia is to promote the development of Malaysia、s tourism and tourism-related industries, which will not only help attract more investment to the country, but also increase employment opportunities, bring economic development to Malaysia and improve the quality of life.

In order to attract more tourists, Tourism Malaysia will carry out a series of activities:

• Organize roadshows: For example, roadshows are held in Chinese cities to convey to Chinese partners that Malaysia is actively preparing for the Tourism Year, enhance the confidence of Chinese tourists to travel to Malaysia, and rebuild a communication and cooperation platform for tourism operators in the two countries. In 2023, its roadshow activities in China covered cities such as Guangzhou, Beijing, Shanghai, Xiamen, Changsha, Chengdu, Lanzhou and Xi an.
• Promote special tourism products and activities: In response to different market needs, launch projects such as leisure tourism, theme tourism, study tours, Malaysias second home, and health care tourism.
• Strengthen publicity and promotion: Provide tourism information about Malaysia through official websites and other channels, including introductions to attractions, travel guides, event information, etc., to attract global tourists.

From December 1, 2023, Malaysia will implement convenient measures for Chinese citizens and others to enter the country without a visa for stays of no more than 30 days. However, foreign citizens must fill out the Malaysian Electronic Arrival Card (MDAC) online within 3 days before entering Malaysia, and print a paper confirmation letter to show to immigration officials upon entry. From December 7, 2023, if the MDAC is not filled out in advance, entry may be denied. Specific entry policies and relevant legal provisions may change. It is recommended to check the official website of the Malaysian Immigration Department or relevant embassies and consulates for the latest information before planning to travel to Malaysia.
