Can I apply for a Non-Ed visa for my children in Malaysia and what are the requirements for parents?

KL is awesome. So many parks and walking trails. The food is delicious and the people are friendly

Forgot part 3. Usually they work on the system of applying for the visa in the morning of day one, and you collect in the afternoon of day 2 (working days only - be aware the embassy/consulates will be closed on Thai and Malay holidays).

In KL you need to book an appointment time. I believe in Penang you don’t (although that may have changed I’ve not been there in years).

You can apply for a non Ed visa in KL for your children. Go on to their website and they have a checklist of documents required. Their school will need to supply some of them.

As parents you may apply for a non O “guardian” visa. Only one parent may do so per child. This will give you 90 days on arrival. You can extend that to a year (or at least until your child’s allowed to stay date) in country providing you have 500k in a bank in your name only. 1st application it needs to have been in one month. Subsequent applications 3 months.

The 500k is each per parent wanting an extension (providing you have two children or more at school).
