Short answer: no photo is needed for a short visit. Indians can visit Malaysia without a visa for up to 30 days until 31 December 2026, with the Malaysia Digital Arrival Card filled in 3 days before arrival (High Commission of Malaysia, New Delhi: visa for foreigners). After that, or for a longer stay, the eVISA asks for a photo (Immigration Department of Malaysia: visa requirement by country).
