Does anyone know for a fact that you have to stay overnight in Malaysia when doing a border-run with Non-B multi visa?

Is it the same for land crossing (specifically Satun border) and flying (K-L)?

Thanks in advance

Answer summary

The requirement to stay overnight in Malaysia during a border run with a Non-B multi visa varies by border crossing. Specific experiences indicate that it's not a universal rule; for example, it may be necessary at certain Cambodia/Thai and Malaysia/Thai borders. Researching the specific border can provide clarity, with some individuals opting to stay overnight at locations like Langkawi and others encountering no issues.

It is totally 100% dependent on THAT specific border crossing. It is NOT a universal rule by any means.

It seems prevalent with some of the Cambodia/Thai borders AND some of the Malaysia/Thai borders.

My advice to people is GOOGLE the border you're thinking of bouncing out and back in at <- That action is what is making them keep people in the neighboring country for 24 hours.
