Do I need a visa for North Korea from Malaysia?

Visa required

Travelling to North Korea on a Malaysia passport, you need a visa, arranged before you travel.

There is no ordinary visa application for North Korea; a licensed tour operator handles it instead. The operator collects your passport details and submits a group application to North Korean authorities weeks ahead of the trip.

Expect to connect through Beijing regardless of where you are flying from, since that is where tours are based. None of this changes based on the purpose of the trip; leisure, business or otherwise, the same tour-based process applies.
