Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your departure date from Malaysia | Your passport needs at least two blank pages for entry stamps. Airlines at Vilnius Airport will check the 6-month validity rule before letting you board — no exceptions. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Malaysia within 90 days | Immigration officers at Kuala Lumpur International Airport routinely ask for a printed or digital onward ticket. A bus ticket to Singapore or a flight to Bangkok works — just show you're leaving within the visa-free window. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Have your first night's hotel confirmation ready on your phone. If you're staying with a friend, a simple letter with their address and phone number is enough — officers rarely ask, but it smooths things out if they do. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Cash, card, or bank statement | Carry at least 500 USD in cash or have a credit card with a visible limit. Officers at KLIA rarely check, but budget airlines flying into Malaysia sometimes ask at check-in. | Recommended |
Passport validity is strictly enforced
Airlines check your passport validity at check-in. If you have less than 6 months left, you won't be allowed to board. Don't risk it.
No visa, no arrival card — just show up
Lithuanian passport holders enjoy one of the simplest entries into Malaysia. No eVisa, no arrival declaration, no fee. Just a valid passport and an onward ticket.
