5-day quarantine for partially vaccinated, unvaccinated travellers from April 1
Starting April 1, travellers who are not fully vaccinated or unvaccinated must undergo quarantine for five days upon their arrival in Malaysia.
Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin said these travellers, once they had completed the compulsory quarantine, must follow the conditions set by the Malaysian government, including not being allowed to dine in at restaurants.
"As for travellers who were exempted from getting vaccinated due to health factors, they must upload proof of vaccination exemption provided by a medical officer into the MySejahtera application," said Khairy in a press conference today.
These were among the protocols that travellers must follow with the reopening of Malaysia's borders next month.
For those undergoing quarantine before April 1, Khairy said their quarantine order would expire on April 1.
"For example, if a person begins his or her quarantine on March 29, the quarantine will end on April 1."
Khairy added that for children aged 17 and below, regardless of their vaccination status, there was no need for them to undergo quarantine.
