Am I able to get a visa in Malaysia

Dec 03, 2014

I am moving to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia in the new year as my husband is working there. I am planning to go to Hoi An (da Nang)from there for a couple of weeks but I do not know when as yet. Am I able to get a visa in Malaysia or can I get a visa from here if I don't know dates of when I am going? What is the best plan? Thank you
