See the details for the Consulate below with a map to the Embassy in KL If you are in need of consular assistance then see what the Embassy or Consulate in Penang is able to do for you.

High Commission of Canada in Malaysia

If you are getting married in Malaysia  you will need a letter from the High Commission of Canada in Malaysia to state that you are not married. You will need to apply for a letter of no impediment from the Embassy or the Consulate in Penang. It takes a while to get the letter and you will need to wait. Once you have the letter you will need to have this translated and certified. When this is done you can now use that letter and its certified translated version to get marriage in Malaysia. You will then need to translate the marriage registration as well. This so your spouse can travel back to Canada with you on a spousal visa.
