Malaysia to Senegal visa requirements
No visa required. Malaysian ordinary passport holders can enter Senegal visa-free for tourism and stay up to 90 days within any 180-day period. You must carry a passport valid for at least 6 months, an onward/return ticket, and a valid yellow fever vaccination certificate. Senegal grants visa-free entry to ordinary Malaysian passport holders for short stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period, covering tourism, family visits, and business. This is confirmed by the Senegalese visa policy and the Senegal Embassy in Malaysia, which lists Malaysia among visa-exempt nationalities. Senegal abolished its short-lived tourist visa/airport tax scheme back in 2015 and has maintained broad visa-free access for many nationalities since. There is no eVisa or visa-on-arrival step needed for a short tourist trip for Malaysians. At the border, immigration officers will check that your passport has at least 6 months validity, that you hold proof of onward or return travel, and that you carry a valid International Certificate of Vaccination against yellow fever, which is mandatory for Senegal as a yellow-fever endemic country. Senegal is not part of the Schengen area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply here; the 90/180 limit referenced is Senegal's own visa-exemption ceiling. Stays longer than 90 days, or non-tourist purposes such as work or study, require an appropriate visa or residence permit applied for in advance. Because policies can change, travelers should reconfirm with the Senegal Embassy in Kuala Lumpur or IATA Travel Centre shortly before departure.
