Malaysia Power Bank Guidelines for Air Travel

If you’re planning to fly with a power bank in Malaysia? Here’s what you need to know before boarding.

What You Can Do

  • Carry-on only – Power banks are not allowed in checked baggage. You must bring them in your hand-carry bag.
  • Keep them with you – Store in the seat pocket, under your seat, or in your personal bag. Do not place in overhead compartments.
  • Check the capacity:
    • Up to 100 Wh – Allowed without airline approval.
    • 100–160 Wh – Maximum of two units, airline approval required.
    • Above 160 Wh – Strictly prohibited.

What You Cannot Do

  • No in-flight use – Charging or using a power bank during the flight is banned.
  • No overhead bin storage – Avoid placing power banks above your seat.
  • No packing in checked luggage – It is against regulations due to fire risks.

Why These Rules Exist

Power banks use lithium-ion batteries, which can overheat and cause fires if damaged or improperly stored. Keeping them accessible ensures quick action in case of an incident.

Quick Tip: Convert mAh to Wh –

Wh = (mAh × 3.7) ÷ 1000

Example: 10,000 mAh ≈ 37 Wh (safe without approval).
