Malaysian Prime Minister: Visa exemption for Chinese citizens will be implemented within 30 days

Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said Monday that Malaysia will start visa-free access for Chinese citizens within 30 days from December 1, Bernama reported.

Anwar said the move was made in anticipation of the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Malaysia and China in 2024. He also expressed gratitude for China's recent announcement of a pilot unilateral visa-free policy for ordinary passport holders in Malaysia.

It is reported that the Malaysian Ministry of Home Affairs will announce specific measures related to the visa-free policy.
