Netherlands Clarifies: No EU Visa Restrictions for Malaysian Travellers
The Dutch authorities have issued a fake news alert, debunking claims circulating on social media that Malaysian passport holders face new Schengen visa restrictions.
No Change to Visa-Free Access for Malaysians
A misleading video online falsely alleged that certain Schengen countries have limited Malaysian visitors to seven-day stays. In response, the official website of the Kingdom of the Netherlands has confirmed that:
- This claim is entirely false.
- Malaysian nationals continue to enjoy visa-free travel to the Schengen Area.
- They are permitted to stay in the bloc for up to 90 days within any 180-day period without needing a visa.
ETIAS Requirement to Be Introduced Soon
Although no visa restrictions exist, Malaysian travellers should be aware that a new travel authorisation system — ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorisation System) — will soon be introduced.
- ETIAS is expected to become mandatory from April 2027 at the earliest.
- It will apply to all visa-exempt travellers, including Malaysians, entering the EU Schengen Zone.
ETIAS Overview
- Purpose: Enhance border security by pre-screening travellers from visa-free countries.
- Application Process: Simple, online-based via the official ETIAS website or mobile app.
- Fee: €7 per application.
- Validity: 3 years or until the applicant’s passport expires — whichever comes first.
- Processing Time: Most approvals will be granted within minutes.
The Dutch authorities urge travellers to rely on official government channels for accurate information and to avoid being misled by fake news on social media.
