Malaysia Entry Requirements for Tourists (August 2022)
Current entry and travel requirements to Malaysia for international tourists
The cheapest international flight out of Bali is to Malaysia, so that's where I'm going!
Here are the most recent tourist entry requirements for Malaysia as of August 2022.
Covid related requirements
There are no more requirements! 🎉
No vaccine certificates; no testing; no quarantine.
If you are caught at the airport showing symptoms or high temperature though, you may be tested. If you test positive, then you may need to quarantine for up to 7 days.

Conclusion
Seems like things are back to normal when travelling to Malaysia.
I was actually there for a few days back in 2018; I wonder if anything has changed since then.
