1. Apply Online
- Iraqi citizens travelling to Malaysia for medical treatment should review the applicable Malaysian visa and entry requirements before travel. Depending on the intended duration of stay and treatment requirements, applicants may need to apply for a Malaysian visa through the appropriate Malaysian Embassy, Consulate, or, where available, an authorised online visa system.
- Applicants should review the official visa and entry requirements through the official Malaysian Immigration eVISA portal:
- https://malaysiavisa.imi.gov.my/evisa/login
- Travellers seeking specialised or long-term medical treatment should ensure compliance with Malaysian immigration and medical stay regulations before travel.

2. Gather and Upload Documents
Applicants should prepare all required supporting documents, including:

- Proof of financial capability (bank statements, sponsorship documents)
