Where to Apply for a Myanmar Visa in Malaysia

I spent 28 days in Myanmar in May 2014 – check out Lonely Planet’s Myanmar Travel Guide to help you plan your own trip.

I applied for my Myanmar visa in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

The embassy has outsourced the visa processing service exclusively to Ever Fine Travel & Tour.

This makes things simple for travellers – do not use any other agency.

* Don’t forget to purchase travel insurance before any trip to Myanmar. We’ve been using World Nomads for over 10 years – it’s the best-value provider we’ve found but there are important things to consider.

For more details check out our World Nomads review.

Application Requirements

There are 4 types of visas available: Tourist, Business, Social Visit and Multiple Journey Entry.

To apply for the Myanmar visa in Kuala Lumpur, you will need:

  • Passport valid for a minimum 6 months from the departure date
  • 2 passport-sized photographs (white back-ground)
  • 223 Ringgit / $52.10 (inclusive of the 30 Ringgit / $7.00 service fee)
  • Application form
  • Photocopy of passport
  • Address in Myanmar (to include on application form)
  • Return flight confirmation

If you are travelling overland, I suggest legitimately or illegitimately obtaining a return flight itinerary, for smoother processing facilitation…

I usually arrange my accommodation as I travel but if you prefer to book in advance check out Hostelworld or try staying with locals through Couchsurfing.

To apply for the Myanmar Visa, the conditions are:

  • May only stay in hotels and guesthouses
  • Valid for 3 months from the date of issue
  • Allows a stay of 28 days from the date of arrival (extendable for an additional 14 days)

  1. Hey, just wondering when you did this since post says sept 2016 and picture says 2014. I’m going next week and just want to make sure info is still accurate.
    Thanks

  2. Hi, v helpful info, thanks! I noticed on Everfine’s website re application for tourist visa that they require flight ticket & hotel reservation as per items 5 & 6..is this a new requirement?

      I’m not sure what the current requirements are because I applied in 2014 – back then you had to provide proof of a return flight but not any hotel reservations (just an address to put on the form). Good luck, let us know how it goes & if you do actually need to provide hotel reservations now 🙂

  3. Hi, thanks for the very helpful info. I noticed on Everfine’s website they now require flight tickets & hotel reservation to be submitted with the application. Is that a new requirement since your posting of Sept 2016?

  4. Oops sorry, I see now there has been a reply to my previous question. Probably slow connection so it was only updated after posting this recent one. Many thanks!
