What is the estimated processing time for a DTV visa in Malaysia after application?

Hi

@Jordan ******

I applied (twice) first application cancelled when it seems I didn't check the auto uploaded data in the Biometrics upload

Average time is 10 working days if documents are together and you oversubmit (more than is asked for via collating more docs into each pdf)

I applied 18th Nov

Extra documents requested 28th Nov

Approved 02nd Dec

See below

Why not plan on 30 days because that is is how long the stamp is good for. Book a flight with a changeable date in case get it earlier. Many people thinking they get in 5 days. Never expect fast. This is 5 year visa so so be patient because then done for 5 years

There's many helpful posts about getting the DTV visa in Jakarta...

The earlier ones were when they had walk in application.

Now it's only via the on-line Evisa application system.

Penang and Kota Bharu say 5-7 working days, and KL says 7 days

It all hinges on how complete you are when you do the application.

It's not a race, take your time, you can log into the system, get everything uploaded, and NOT submit the visa application (leave it in your profile) then once you get to Malaysia you can upload your entry stamp, fill in the hotel address and apply <- that is about as fast as you can make it

Check your data entry <- because if you get it wrong or it scans your passport data wrong and you don't catch it you get the visa rejected 😮

upload all the documents they require, as the "request for additional documents" is what slows that process down.

Don't forget to upload your malaysia entry stamp to show you're IN Malaysia and make sure you use the correct consulated (KL, Penang or Kota Bharu) depending on where you are

I heard mad things about the time it takes in KL... maybe 20 days upwards.

There is a group search tool, use it. Also visit the embassy website to see what they say about processing times

Malaysia is Evisa
