The Malaysia Digital Arrival Card (MDAC) is an electronic registration system established by the Malaysian government to streamline entry procedures for international visitors. Most foreign travelers—depending on their nationality and visa requirements—are required to complete the MDAC before arriving in Malaysia.
This online declaration is part of Malaysia’s official border management program, designed to support security checks and immigration processing. Travelers must provide basic personal, travel, and immigration details, which are then made available to Malaysian border authorities to help facilitate a smoother arrival experience.
Whether you are planning a business trip, a holiday, or a family visit, completing the MDAC is an important step before your journey.
From exploring the cultural heritage of Kuala Lumpur to relaxing on the beaches of Langkawi or discovering the rainforests of Borneo, travelers should ensure their MDAC submission is completed ahead of departure to avoid delays at the border.
Once submitted, the MDAC is processed by the Malaysian government’s official system. Travelers typically receive an email confirmation from the authorities once their submission has been successfully received.
When accepted, the MDAC is electronically linked to the traveler’s passport and journey details by Malaysian immigration authorities. There is no need to print or present a separate document at arrival, as border officers can access the information electronically. A new MDAC must be completed for each entry into Malaysia and should be submitted within 3 days (72 hours) prior to arrival.
If there are problems with the MDAC — such as missing or incorrect information — the authorities or airline may request corrections or a resubmission before boarding or upon arrival. It is important to ensure all details, including passport numbers, travel dates, and points of entry, are accurate. Incomplete or incorrect submissions may result in delays or denied entry until the information is properly corrected.
Our role is to assist travelers in completing the MDAC accurately and on time. The review, acceptance, and verification of the MDAC are handled solely by Malaysian immigration authorities.
