“Malaysia is currently one of the few countries to offer ease of entry restrictions for inbound travellers. Apart from enjoying quarantine-free travel, fully vaccinated inbound travellers are no longer required to undergo pre-departure and on-arrival COVID-19 tests, or fill in the Traveller’s Card. Travel insurance is also no longer a pre-requisite for foreigners entering the country. Thus, Middle East tourists are welcome to experience and create joyous memorable holidays in Malaysia,” says Dato’ Haji Zainuddin Abdul Wahab, the Director General of Tourism Malaysia.
