KL will not give a double entry tourist visa!

Single only.

Curently they are difficult and if you want a double, go to either consulate in Laos.

KL for all intents and purposes stopped doing tourist visas for anybody but Malaysian citizens or residents. They are asking for financial proof including a letter from your employer.

Hi, this sounds like breaking news! I was just there this past October and was able to get a visa no problem. Is this a new policy effective 2014 or something? If so, is it strictly Malaysians only who will be considered for tourist visas? How about expats who can demonstrate financial solvency?

Please let me know your thoughts, as I already have a flight scheduled to go to KL this week, and just stumbled onto this post.

Thanks kindly for your help.

That came from reports of wanting a letter from an employer and wanting other financial proof plus a ticket out of the country.

There was report from a member since then that said he got one without the financials or ticket out but mentioned there were others who got turned down.

They apparently are not being consistent with their requirements.

All you can do is try.

Thanks ubonjoe, I hear ya on that. Sounds like a costly roll of the dice though.

I'm wondering if they are harder on the ones who already have past visas in their passport(I've got 3, although from different times over the past two years).

Are you aware of any reports on success rates of visa applications through the Penang consulate?

I don't recall any recent negative reports for Penang.

Because it is their policy not to do them.

It is the same for all nearby locations except for Laos.

The reason for a consulate to refuse a tourist visa is that the consulate suspects that the applicant would not use it exclusively for the declared purpose of tourism. An applicant could try to overcome this suspicion by enclosing a letter to the consul with a convincing explanation that the visa, if granted, will be used only for tourism and nothing else, and that his travel itinerary so far did not enable him to apply for the visa before leaving his country of permanent residence.
