Frequently asked questions

Do North Korean citizens need a visa for Malaysia?

Yes. North Korean citizens need a visa for Malaysia. It is not available online — the application goes through an embassy or consulate.

Still have a question?

Ask our assistant. It answers in the chat, and we hand it the route you are looking at — North Korean passport, travelling to Malaysia — so you do not have to repeat it.

What Malaysia may ask for

Not every traveller is asked for all of these. A valid passport is checked every time; the rest is a spot check at the border, and some items belong to a visa application rather than the crossing itself.
