KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 16 (Bernama) -- Malaysians travelling to Europe via India will be subject to additional screening by European border authorities before boarding connecting flights.
The High Commission of Malaysia in New Delhi, in a Facebook post, noted that this is because European authorities have enforced stricter rules on Passenger Profiling Procedures for transit passengers.
The number of Malaysian travellers seeking consular assistance to return to Malaysia due to non-compliance with this procedure is increasing.
Therefore, travellers are advised to ensure all travel documents, including passports, visas, and return flight tickets, are valid and complete.
Travellers would also have to 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,” it said.
The High Commission strongly encourages all Malaysian citizens to take note of this advisory to avoid unnecessary inconvenience and financial loss.
For consular assistance, Malaysians may contact the High Commission.
