Health Minsiter Khairy Jamaluddin has announced that all foreign tourists entering Malaysia will no longer need to complete the traveller’s card feature in MySejahtera beginning 1 August 2022. The decision was made after taking into account our country’s health system that is now at a good and controlled level.

According to national news agency Bernama, Khairy also asserted that the decision aims to facilitate the entry procedures of travellers into the country. In a statement today, the Health Minister stressed that his ministry will constantly intensify symptom monitoring activities among travellers at all international entry points in our country.

Allaying any fears that the public may have, Khairy asserted,

“During arrival at PMA, if a traveller is detected with a fever through a thermal scanner or is found to be unwell, they will be referred for re-examination by the health department,”
