One-week visa extension for stranded China tourists, says Sabah DCM

KOTA KINABALU: Airlines have agreed to waive cancellation fees while the Immigration Department will allow a special extension of one week to China nationals stranded in the state following the novel coronavirus outbreak, says Deputy Chief Minister Datuk Christina Liew.

She said the state Immigration Department had agreed to assist with visa extensions of seven days after the expiry date, but this could only be done at the state Immigration head office in Kota Kinabalu.
