The High Commission of Malaysia in New Delhi wishes to inform Malaysian travellers that European authorities have enforced stricter rules on Passenger Profiling Procedures for transit passengers. Malaysians travelling to Europe via India will be subject to additional screening by European border authorities before boarding connecting flights.

The number of Malaysian travellers seeking consular assistance to return to Malaysia due to non-compliance with this procedure, is increasing.

Therefore, all travellers are advised to :

• Ensure all travel documents, including passports, visas, and return flight tickets, are valid and complete;
• Be prepared to provide supporting documentation such as accommodation bookings, travel itineraries, and sufficient proof of funds;
• Check with the relevant airline or European mission in Malaysia for the latest requirements before departure; and
• Allow sufficient time for possible checks during transit in India.

The High Commission strongly encourages all Malaysian citizens to take note of this advisory to avoid unnecessary inconvenience and financial loss.
