Starting from 1 June 2024, travellers from 36 more countries and regions will be able to make use of Malaysia\u2019s autogate facility for immigration clearance. According to Home Minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail, these 36 countries and regions are in addition to a list of 10 countries, including Singapore, that already enjoy the facility.<\/p>\n

Some of the latest additions to the list include the European Union, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Jordan, mainland China, Canada, Hong Kong and Taiwan.<\/p>\n

Malaysia has decided to allow travellers from these places, deemed as low-risk, to use the autogate to ensure a smooth immigration clearing process, said Mr Saifuddin, after attending the National Registration Department Excellent Service Awards on 16 May.<\/p>\n

According to Mr Saifuddin, the number of travellers to Malaysia has risen, pointing to the approximately 40 million who entered the country between 1 January 2023, and April 2024. Of that number, about 30.5 million entered via Terminals 1 and 2 of the Kuala Lumpur International Airport, and Johor Bahru.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis move is expected to not only ensure faster and smoother clearance at our entry points but will also help boost tourism,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The minister assured that the use of automation by foreign travellers would not affect the country\u2019s security as information would still be captured and recorded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
