Travel restrictions due to the Covid-19 pandemic:

Coronavirus; Countries around the world are taking action to contain the Coronavirus and end the pandemic. Many have put in place mandatory quarantine measures or have closed their borders. As a result normal border crossing can no longer be guaranteed. Consequently, the risk that Belgian citizens get stuck in a foreign country is becoming a lot higher. We therefore advise against all travel abroad. You are recommended to keep an eye on this website for the latest updates regarding the Coronavirus in Malaysia. We invite Belgians residing in Malaysia who are not registered at the Embassy yet to do so. Questions about the situation in Belgium? Click here.

We encourage you to first of all read our travel advice here (Dutch) or here (French).

For further questions you can contact us by e-mail at kualalumpur@diplobel.fed.be or by phone at 012/267 31 12. Also keep an eye on our Facebook page.
