Malaysia Business e-Visa for Nepali Entrepreneurs – Eligibility & Processing

Malaysia offers an easy and fast Business e-Visa (MYVISA) system for Nepali entrepreneurs who want to visit the country for short-term business activities such as meetings, trade fairs, or investment visits. The e-Visa system allows applicants to apply completely online, without visiting the Malaysian Embassy, and is processed through the official portal https://malaysiavisa.imi.gov.my.

Eligibility

Nepali passport holders can apply for a Single Entry Visa (SEV) for one business trip or a Multiple Entry Visa (MEV) for frequent visits. Applicants must have a passport valid for at least six months and three blank pagesavailable. The application must be submitted before traveling to Malaysia, as e-Visa applications from within Malaysia are not allowed.

Required Documents

Before starting the application, prepare the following:

• Valid passport and recent passport-sized photo (white background, studio-taken)

• Invitation or cover letter from the Malaysian company or business partner

• Confirmed return air ticket and travel itinerary
