Please wait for the national registration instructions. Your expression of interest is the beginning of the planning process.
BEFORE REGISTERING DIRECTLY
Your expression of interest is not official WYD registration. The proposed national process connects your application with diocesan verification, group registration and pastoral accompaniment.
PROPOSED NATIONAL PROCESS
Submit your application through the Malaysian portal when it opens. Indicate your package route and interest in optional DiD.
Who should register through this form? Young Persons, Youth leaders, Priests, Religious Brothers and Sisters.
**Bishops intending to go for WYD 2027 are kindly asked to contact the NCT.
Your (arch)diocese checks your application against its criteria and confirms eligible pilgrims. This would also include preliminary checks for Visa applications (NON-MALAYSIAN pilgrims), safeguarding requirements, and (or) special needs.
The National Coordination Team (NCT) checks and consolidates endorsed pilgrim information.
At this point, recommended flight and travel information will be provided. Specific 'arrival date, time and points' will be advised for ease of pilgrims.
Confirmed pilgrims follow the central national payment instructions. Kindly go through the terms and conditions below to understand the process.
Those who are registering in a group and have made contributions through their group leaders are advised to keep informed and in communication with your respective group leaders.
All pilgrims will receive individual payment links unless advised otherwise.
The NCT coordinates Malaysia's group and pilgrim information in the Local Organising Committee (LOC) registration system.
Please take note that Registration is Non-refundable.
Kindly refer to the terms and conditions below. Please contact the NCT for any concerns regarding confirmation of leave/time-off.
Participate in diocesan formation and complete the required safeguarding, parental consent where applicable, and travel documents. Preparation takes place throughout the journey.
Confirm and provide your flight details, DiD allocation if joining, group information and logistical arrangements. Follow the meeting and arrival instructions for your route.
Preparing throughout the journey
Prepare your heart through prayer, Scripture, the sacraments and diocesan formation. Reflect on your hopes for this pilgrimage, grow in community and remain open to encountering Christ in the people you meet.
Build your readiness for long walks, outdoor activities and a busy programme. Get used to your walking shoes and carrying your day bag, and plan for rest and hydration. Share any health, mobility or accessibility needs with your diocesan coordinator early.
Participate in diocesan formation and complete the required safeguarding, parental consent, visa applications.
REGISTRATION TIMELINES
Please read these terms before registering for the Malaysian Contingent to WYD Seoul 2027. By submitting the registration form, you confirm that you have read and agree to them.
Submitting the form is an application to join the Malaysian Contingent. Your place is confirmed only after your details have been verified, any required diocesan endorsement is complete, and the required payment has been received.
Please provide complete and accurate information and respond to requests for documents or clarification by the stated deadlines. Incomplete applications may not be processed.
The applicable fees, payment instructions and deadlines are listed in the official fee schedule. Please check what is included and which costs you must pay separately.
Unless an instalment arrangement is expressly offered, payment must be made in full by the stated deadline. Your place is not confirmed until the required payment is received.
Fees paid are non-refundable if you withdraw or are unable to participate.
You may request to transfer your place to a replacement pilgrim. Transfers require approval, must meet the WYD organisers’ requirements and deadlines, and may involve additional costs. A transfer is not confirmed until you receive written approval.
If the event or a package is cancelled, any refund will depend on the amount recoverable from the organisers and costs already incurred.
Indicating interest in Days in the Diocese (DiD) does not guarantee a place. Participation depends on acceptance by the host diocese, available places and any additional requirements or fees.
The deadline to indicate interest in DiD is 31 December 2026. Further information will be provided to those who indicate interest.
Pilgrims are responsible for booking and paying for their own flights and any travel outside the official WYD programme, unless the Malaysian Contingent states otherwise in writing.
Check that your travel plans match the latest official arrival and departure instructions. Suggested flights are for reference only and are not bookings made on your behalf.
You are responsible for having a valid passport and meeting all entry, transit and travel requirements that apply to you.
You must arrange suitable travel insurance for your journey, including medical cover and cover for travel disruption. Check the official fee schedule to see whether any insurance is included in your WYD package.
For contingent safeguarding purposes, pilgrims born on or after 1 January 2009 are treated as minors. They must provide the required parent or guardian consent and comply with the contingent’s supervision and chaperone arrangements.
A parent or guardian must provide accurate emergency contact and relevant medical information. A minor may participate only after the required arrangements have been accepted by the contingent.
Please provide accurate information about health conditions, medication, allergies, accessibility needs and emergency contacts that may affect your participation or care. Inform the coordinators if this information changes before departure.
This information will be handled sensitively and shared with people who need it for registration, safeguarding, pastoral care or emergency response.
Pilgrims must follow the code of conduct, safeguarding requirements and reasonable instructions issued by the Malaysian Contingent, WYD organisers and host dioceses. Serious misconduct or failure to follow safeguarding instructions may result in removal from an activity or the contingent. Any resulting costs are the pilgrim’s responsibility.
Programme, accommodation, transport and group arrangements may change due to organiser decisions, safety needs, availability or circumstances beyond the organisers’ control. Updates will be shared through official channels.
The information you provide will be used to administer your registration, payment, travel and programme arrangements, and to support safeguarding, pastoral care and emergency response. Relevant information may be shared with diocesan representatives, WYD organisers, host dioceses, service providers or a parent or guardian when needed for these purposes.
Please check the email address and phone number you provide, including your spam or junk folder, and follow official contingent communications.
