There was a post here about travel from Bangkok to Kuala Lumpur by train the other day. We more or less did the full length from Bangkok to Singapore (and back) a couple weeks ago as part of a "quick" visa run to Penang. This was my first tourist visa run since my stv ended and the embassy/consulate in Penang is back to business although noticed some changes since my last visit (it now takes 2-days for visa processing). Anyway, pulled together footage of the complete train journey for those thinking of similar. Penang is handy for visa runs from Bangkok (or hua hin etc.) without pre-booking flights, entry visas like in other countries etc. and the border restrictions are now relaxed for Malaysia asking only for proof of vaccinations and maybe an online pre-arrival thing (although we didn't do this on the return from Singapore). Otherwise the mysejahtera app and insurance etc. has been dropped. [members only]

Hello, anyone else planning a trip to Malaysia between the 15 & 31th of this month?

Malaysia is set to open an Vaccinated (Air) Travel Lane with Thailand on the 15--and I am hoping to travel on the 21st.

Of course Malaysia opens to all countries on the 1st of April, but in my case I can't wait.

Hoping to find out if anyone has any ideas of the VTL process. Currently you can only register if arriving from Singapore in the next 7 days.

Specifically I was wanting to know if:

- Insurance was required to enter MY?

-If yes, is there a recommendation for a short, 3 day policy?

-When we might be able to find some new details.

Thanks!

Can someone clarify difinitively the situation regarding Malaysia's upcoming shutdown on 18th March? Specifically, with regards to restrictions on exiting the country, this seems to apply only to Malaysian nationals (so its misinformation being spread around that tourists can't leave). Thank you in advance
