Can I Get a Job in Malaysia on a Tourist Visa?

No, you cannot legally work in Malaysia on a tourist visa. Tourist visas only allow short-term visits for tourism, family visits, or business meetings. Employment or any form of paid work is not permitted.

To work legally in Malaysia, you must obtain a valid work visa, such as an Employment Pass, Professional Visit Pass, or other work permits depending on your job and qualifications. Working without the proper visa can result in fines, deportation, and restrictions on future travel to Malaysia.
