I applied for a 60 day tourist visa in KL, but failed to pick it up today. My flight leaves tomorrow 7am. Is there anything I can do? am I doomed for a 30day stamp on arrival? Has anyone been in this situation before?

No passport, hence no flight back. Enjoying my weekend in KL. On Monday I'll pick up my passport, with or without the visa, I don't care anymore and then flying out on Tuesday. Most expensive visa run in my life.

The visa will have an enter by date, so you'll have a 3 month window to enter the country,

The very short version is you won't be catching your flight as you lack your passport. I'd be looking at changing your flight urgently or if you can't - book a new one.

Normally if you apply for a Visa you have to leave your passport at the Embassy, so they can put in the Visa sticker. If you did not picked it up how you travel without a passport?

Don't they cancel it if it's not picked up on time? Check with
@Tod ********
you might need to book a flight for Tuesday.
