Family Visa Application Guide: How to Apply for Multiple Family Members

Applying for Malaysia visas for your entire family can seem overwhelming, but with proper planning and organization, the process becomes much simpler. This guide will help you navigate family visa applications efficiently.

• All family members processed together
• Shared accommodation and travel details
• Easier to manage all applications together

For visa purposes, family typically includes:

• Spouse
• Children (minor and adult)
• Parents
• Siblings (in some cases)

Every family member needs their own set of documents:

• Book Accommodation Together: One hotel booking for the whole family
• Shared Flight Bookings: Book all tickets in one reservation
• Primary Applicant Bank Statement: Main earning member's statement can cover family
• Standard Processing: Use standard processing if time permits

For family applications, you typically need to show financial capacity to support everyone's trip:

Family applications are submitted together, but each person's application is decided individually by Immigration, so timing can differ between family members. Allow extra time so that everyone can travel together.

• Apply at least 2 weeks before travel
• Consider Express (priority handling by our team) if your travel date is close; it does not guarantee a faster decision
• Allow extra time during peak holiday seasons

Once approved, you'll receive separate eVisa PDFs for each family member. Print all eVisas and carry them during your Malaysia trip. Each person must present their individual eVisa at immigration.

Remember, every family member (including children) needs a separate MDAC submission. Fill out MDAC for each person within 3 days before arrival in Malaysia.

• Keep all passports and eVisas in one safe place
• Make copies of all documents
• Have digital copies on your phone
• Brief children on immigration procedures
• Arrive at airport early with family
• Keep documents easily accessible during journey
