Meanwhile, Malaysian citizens who will return home are encouraged to use the application for the payment of COVID-19 detection test charges and quarantine costs. All proof of payments must be submitted at the counter upon arrival at the international point of arrival, prior COVID-19 detection test and quarantine placement.
