Passport & Visas

Most travelers don’t need a visa to go to Malaysia for trips that last less than three months, as long as they’re going for tourism or business reasons. This rule applies to citizens from countries like Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, and South Africa.

But, if you’re going to the island of Borneo, keep in mind that the eastern states of Sabah and Sarawak might have extra rules for entry or visas because they have their own immigration controls. It’s a good idea to check your government’s advice for the latest info on traveling in eastern Malaysia before you go. Also, when you arrive in Sabah or Sarawak, even if it’s on a domestic flight from mainland Malaysia, you’ll need your passport.

To find out which countries need visas or not to travel to Malaysia, you can visit the official Malaysian government website for the complete list.

This information is provided as a guidance, we strongly advise that you check with the consulate or embassy as this information can change at any time and with little notice. It is your responsibility to make sure that all the required travel documents are ready when travelling.

Weather

Malaysia‘s weather is typically characterized by a tropical climate with high humidity and temperatures throughout the year. However, there are some regional variations in weather patterns due to the country’s geographical diversity. Malaysia experiences two main monsoon seasons, which can affect the best time to visit different parts of the country.

In the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia, including destinations like Kota Bharu, Terengganu, and the Perhentian Islands, the wet season prevails from November to February due to the northeast monsoon. Conversely, the ideal time to explore this region is during the dry season, which spans from March to October. This period offers sunny weather, making it perfect for engaging in beach activities and water sports. Meanwhile, in Borneo, renowned for its lush rainforests, diverse wildlife, and Mt. Kinabalu, the climate remains consistently tropical with rainfall year-round. However, the prime time to visit Borneo is during the drier months, extending from April to September, allowing for more enjoyable trekking and outdoor adventures. It’s worth noting that Borneo can still experience occasional rain showers throughout the year, so it’s wise to be prepared for such conditions.

Money Matters

The official currency of Malaysia is the Malaysian Ringgit, abbreviated as MYR or represented by the symbol “RM.” Currency exchange services are widely available throughout Malaysia, including at banks, money changers, and airports. When exchanging currency or using ATMs, be aware of any fees or commissions that may apply, both from the currency exchange service provider and your own bank or card issuer. Malaysia has a well-established network of ATMs, and you can easily withdraw Malaysian Ringgit using your debit or credit card. Credit cards are widely accepted in Malaysia, and you can use them for most transactions, including shopping, dining, and hotel payments. While it’s advisable to have some Malaysian Ringgit in cash for small purchases or in case you visit places that do not accept cards, it’s generally safe to rely on electronic payments in Malaysia.

Please remember that everyone has different spending habits, some prefer to spend more on souvenirs, some on experiences and others on a night out! Make sure to budget your trip to your spending habits for shopping, drinking, and tipping.

Tipping practices in Malaysia, Borneo, and Singapore vary, but they share some common customs. In Malaysia, a 10% service charge is often included in restaurant bills, and additional tipping is appreciated but not mandatory. Similar practices apply in Borneo. In Singapore, tipping is less common, with service charges included in many restaurant bills, and additional tips are generally not expected for services like taxis or public transportation. However, it’s customary to leave small tips for hotel staff. Overall, while tipping is appreciated for good service, it’s not obligatory, and the amount you choose to tip can vary based on your discretion and satisfaction with the service.

Eating & Drinking

Malaysian cuisine is a delightful fusion of flavors and influences from Malay, Chinese, Indian, Thai, Javanese, and Sumatran culinary traditions. This diversity results in a rich and complex cuisine with a wide range of flavors and dishes. Here are five of the most traditional and iconic dishes in Malaysian cuisine:

Nasi Lemak: Nasi Lemak is often considered Malaysia’s national dish. It features fragrant coconut rice served with a variety of accompaniments, including sambal (spicy chili paste), fried crispy anchovies, roasted peanuts, boiled or fried egg, cucumber slices, and a choice of rendang (spicy meat stew), fried chicken, or other proteins. It’s typically served on a banana leaf and is a beloved breakfast option.

Roti Canai: Roti Canai is a popular Malaysian breakfast dish of Indian origin. It consists of thin, flaky, and crispy flatbreads served with dhal (lentil curry) or other curries. It’s often enjoyed with a side of pickles or sambal.

Char Kway Teow: Similar to the Singaporean version, Malaysian Char Kway Teow is a stir-fried noodle dish made with flat rice noodles, prawns, Chinese sausage, eggs, bean sprouts, and a savory soy sauce. It’s cooked in a hot wok to achieve a smoky flavor.

Hainanese Chicken Rice: Hainanese Chicken Rice, though with Chinese origins, is widely enjoyed in Malaysia. It features poached chicken served with fragrant rice cooked in chicken broth, accompanied by chili sauce and ginger paste. It’s a beloved dish at hawker centers and restaurants.

Internet Access

Internet access in Malaysia is relatively good, especially in urban areas of Peninsular Malaysia. The country has a reasonably developed internet infrastructure with a range of broadband options available. However, the quality and speed of internet can vary, with urban centers enjoying faster and more reliable connections compared to rural areas. Mobile internet is widely accessible, and 4G coverage is generally available across the country. In Borneo (Sabah and Sarawak), internet access can be less consistent, especially in remote and rural regions, where infrastructure development may lag behind. In cities and major towns, you can expect better internet connectivity, but it may still not be as fast or reliable as in some parts of Peninsular Malaysia.

Culture, Religion, and Traditions

Malaysia’s culture is a vibrant tapestry woven from the diverse threads of its multi-ethnic and multi-religious society. The country’s cultural mosaic is primarily influenced by three main ethnic groups: Malays, Chinese, and Indians, each contributing their own customs, traditions, and languages. This rich tapestry is further enriched by the presence of indigenous tribes in East Malaysia (Borneo). Religion plays a crucial role in Malaysian culture, with Islam being the predominant faith, followed by Buddhism, Hinduism, Christianity, and indigenous belief systems. These diverse religious communities coexist harmoniously, and religious festivals, such as Eid al-Fitr, Diwali, Chinese New Year, and Christmas, are celebrated with great enthusiasm and are often national holidays. Malaysian culture is characterized by its traditional arts, music, dance, and culinary delights, making it a melting pot of flavors and traditions. The country’s commitment to preserving its cultural heritage is evident in the various cultural festivals, museums, and heritage sites that showcase the richness of its cultural diversity.

Etiquette and How to Dress

In both Singapore and Malaysia, etiquette and dressing appropriately are important aspects of local culture and are generally expected to be respected by both locals and visitors. When it comes to clothing, it’s advisable to dress modestly, particularly when visiting religious sites and in more conservative areas. In Singapore, where diverse cultures coexist, there is a greater degree of flexibility in dress, but revealing clothing should be avoided out of respect for local customs. In Malaysia, dressing modestly is particularly important, especially in rural and religious areas, where covering shoulders and knees is recommended. It’s a good practice to carry a sarong or shawl that can be used as a cover-up when needed. In both countries, when entering someone’s home or a place of worship, it’s customary to remove your shoes. When dining, it’s polite to wait for the host to start the meal before eating, and using your right hand for giving and receiving items or gestures is considered more respectful. Being mindful of local customs and showing respect for the cultural norms of these countries will generally be appreciated by the locals.
