Kuala Lumpur tourist visa update:

They wanted to see flight bookings into Thailand and onwards, as well as proof of lodging here, and their completed and signed checklist along with the visa application form and cash. No financials required. Arrived 9:30am on Tuesday and was done in around 30 minutes, picked up at 2:30 the next day - was in and out in 5 minutes.

Flew back into DMK on Air Asia last night – used an express service on arrival so there was no queueing at all, no questions and even a hint of a smile from the Immigration Officer.

Up to that point I'd had a consecutive visa exempt entry and an SETV issued in Saigon, both of which I'd extended for 30 days.
