Travelling to Kota Kinabalu

Travelers entering Malaysia, including Kota Kinabalu, need to obtain a visa unless they are coming from one of the visa-exempt countries¹. The Malaysian government issues three types of visas to foreigners¹:

Single Entry Visa: Issued to foreigners requiring a visa to enter Malaysia primarily for social visits. Typically valid for a single entry and for three (3) months from the date of issue.
Multiple Entry Visa: Issued to foreigners requiring a visa to enter Malaysia primarily for business or government matters. Typically valid for a period of three (3) months to twelve (12) months from the date of issue.
Transit Visa: Issued to foreigners requiring a visa to enter Malaysia while in transit to another country. Foreigners transiting without leaving the airport premises and continuing their journey to the next destination on the same flight do not require a transit visa¹.

You can check visa eligibility, requirements, and fees by country, as well as eVISA eligibility and other relevant information by visiting the Malaysian Immigration Department website.

However, if you do not leave Malaysia at any time during your journey and there are still days remaining on the visit pass granted when you entered Malaysia, you do not need a visa or special permission to visit Kota Kinabalu³. Additionally, starting from November 1, 2021, foreigners can enter Sabah for social visits without requiring special entry approval.
