Malaysian Immigration - brief information about
travel in Malaysia.
Visitors entering Malaysia must possess a valid
passport or an internationally recognized travel document (valid for
travel to Malaysia).
Those who are not in possession of any of these must obtain a
Document in lieu of Passport from the Malaysian Representative
Office abroad.
A passport is necessary for travel between Peninsular Malaysia and
Sabah and Sarawak, as well as between Sabah and Sarawak. Malaysians
from the Peninsula need either a passport or their identity card to
enter Sabah and Sarawak.
Visitors who come to Malaysia on a visa must get the document from
the Malaysian Representative Office abroad before entering the
country. A visa must be used within its validity period (normally
three months).
However, visitors should note that a visa is not a guarantee for
entering Malaysia. The final decision rests with the Immigration
Officer at the entry point.

Airport tax is charged upon departure and costs RM5 for domestic
flights and RM40 for international flights.
