- Good to know
- Malaysia is not visa-exempt for Israel: the official ETA-IL eligibility checker, run on 2026-10-10 for a Malaysia regular passport with purpose 'Visit (Tourism)', returned 'Not Eligible — you cannot apply for an ETA-IL. You may need to apply for a visa' (checker country data: NEED_PERMIT=1). A B/2 visitor visa is for tourism, medical tourism, business meetings or short non-academic study; no work. PIBA: the B/2 'usually grants single entry and is valid for three months from the day it's granted'; on the eVisa-B2 page, validity is 'up to 90 days according the consul's decision' and duration 'up to 90 days, determined by Border Control, upon arrival'. Some applicants may be asked to attend the nearest Israeli consulate. A visa does not guarantee entry. The eVisa-B2 online system is open to visa-required nationalities; otherwise apply through an Israeli diplomatic mission. Malaysia and Israel have no diplomatic relations and Malaysia's own rules on travel to Israel were not verified here — check with Malaysian authorities before planning travel.
