India remains and has been one of the top market sources for Malaysia and has contributed 735,309 arrivals (+22%) in 2019. Apart from its objective to instill confidence among Indians to feel safe to visit Malaysia once again, the roadshow aims to provide a platform for the industry community to steer the tourism sector and return even stronger.

The resumption of scheduled international flights from India coincides with the reopening of Malaysia’s international borders. We are very thrilled to welcome Indian travellers once again to our humble abode,” said Datuk Seri Dr. Santhara J.P.
Fully-vaccinated travellers can now enjoy quarantine-free travel to Malaysia, and are no longer required to undergo pre-departure and on-arrival COVID-19 tests.
