Thanks a lot for outlining the procedure for obtaining a work visa in Malaysia. Somehow it doesn't make sense to me that flight tickets are required for visa approval. What if the application with the immigration department gets rejected or the processing time takes longer than the actual flight date?
Your concerns about the requirement of flight tickets for a Malaysia work visa application are valid. Typically, visa processes do not require flight tickets at the application stage due to the risks of rejection or delays you mentioned. This requirement might be specific to certain types of visas or individual circumstances. It's advisable to confirm with the Malaysian embassy or consulate, or check the official immigration website for detailed and accurate information. They can provide clarity on the requirements and suggest the best course of action in case of potential delays or visa rejection.
THANK YOU
You are welcome.
I am being offered a job in malaysia by a huge MNC and the company is not ready to give Sponsorship. They are asking me to get the work permit or employment pass by myself. What should i apply for? Its a permanent position. Will i be able to get the employment pass or work permit based on just offer letter ? What esle do i need from the company?
To obtain a work visa (Employment Pass or Professional Visit Pass) in Malaysia for a permanent position, you will need the support and cooperation of the hiring company. They should provide you with the necessary documents and information required for the application. A formal job offer letter is essential, and you will need additional documents such as a letter of approval from the Ministry of Home Affairs, an employment contract, educational certificates, and your passport. While you can initiate the application, it's crucial to ensure the company's willingness to provide the required support for your work visa application. The employment pass is typically tied to your employment with the specific company, and it's essential to have a valid job offer to apply successfully.
If I am from a country that is on the list, example South Africa, does that mean I don't need to apply for a work visa to work in Malaysia?
No, even if you are from a country on the list like South Africa, you still need to apply for a work visa to work in Malaysia. Being from a listed country may affect tourist visa requirements, but a work visa is mandatory for employment.
What about marrying Malaysian citizen, would I be able to live and work in there ? Do Malaysian give citizenship to spouse ?
Yes, marrying a Malaysian citizen can allow you to live in Malaysia through a Spouse Visa, and you may have the opportunity to work in the country, but it does not automatically grant you Malaysian citizenship.

Hi Rosel Deduyo,
To work in Malaysia, you will need to secure a job offer from a Malaysian employer who can then apply for a work visa on your behalf. Given your extensive skills and experience, you should highlight these when applying for jobs. Websites like JobStreet Malaysia and Indeed Malaysia can be useful for finding job opportunities. Once you have a job offer, your employer will handle the visa application process. Good luck!
So question, For my country (Iraq) Malaysia is supposedly visa free
May I ask what that means? Do I have a specific amount of time I can stay or does it work like if I had a visa?
If your country, Iraq, has a visa-free agreement with Malaysia, it means that Iraqi citizens can enter Malaysia for a specified period without the need for a visa. The specific terms and conditions of this visa-free arrangement can vary and may be subject to change, so it's crucial to check with the Malaysian authorities or the Malaysian Embassy or Consulate in your country for the most up-to-date information.
Typically, visa-free entry allows you to stay in Malaysia for a limited duration, often for tourism or short visits. The permitted stay duration can vary, and it is usually determined by the immigration officials when you arrive in Malaysia. It's important to respect the allowed stay period and not overstay, as doing so can lead to immigration violations and potential consequences.
Sir, about work permit. If we want to go out from Malaysia and our work permit still have 3 months left before its expired. Is it will be banned from Malaysia if we don't cancel the work permit (COM) in immigration?
I do not think you might have a problem.

Hello my 3 daughters are working online medical billing can they apply for visa I'm from Pakistan
For your daughters working in online medical billing, they can apply for a Malaysia work visa if they secure employment with a Malaysian company that sponsors their visa. If they continue to work remotely for a non-Malaysian company, they would not qualify for a work visa. However, they might consider applying for a different type of visa that suits their situation, such as a long-term social visit pass, depending on their specific circumstances and the length of their stay in Malaysia. They should consult with the Malaysian embassy or an immigration attorney for guidance tailored to their specific situation.
Sir what happened f caught in Malaysian immigration and only passport they bring?how long the process to going back there country?
If someone is caught by Malaysian immigration with only their passport, the process and timeline for returning to their country can vary based on nationality, reason for the violation, and actions taken by authorities. Typically, individuals are detained, undergo investigation, and may face legal consequences. The duration could be days to weeks, depending on the situation. It's crucial to cooperate with immigration, seek legal advice if possible, and follow authorities' instructions. For specific guidance, contact the relevant authorities or legal counsel.
Sir for IT Project Manager, does it have age limit (47 here) to be qualified to get an Employment Pass in Malaysia? thank you
To my knowledge, Malaysia does not have a strict age limit for Employment Pass applicants, including IT Project Managers. The primary considerations for obtaining an Employment Pass in Malaysia typically involve the qualifications of the applicant, the nature of the job, the salary offered, and whether the employer has successfully demonstrated that the position cannot be filled by a local candidate.
However, it's important to note that policies and regulations can change, and while age itself may not be a disqualifying factor, some employers or specific roles may have preferences or requirements. It's advisable to check directly with the Malaysian Immigration Department or the Expatriate Services Division (ESD) for the most current information and any specific requirements related to age for Employment Pass eligibility. Additionally, ensuring that your qualifications, experience, and the job offer meet the criteria set by the Malaysian authorities will be crucial in your application process.
@@visalibrary thank you for the very insightful reply. appreciate much

Yes, it is generally required to apostille or authenticate certain documents when applying for a Malaysia work visa. The specific requirements can vary depending on your nationality and the type of work visa you are applying for. Typically, documents such as your educational certificates and marriage certificates (if applicable) may need to be apostilled or authenticated to verify their authenticity. It's advisable to check with the Malaysian immigration authorities or the Malaysian embassy/consulate in your home country for the exact document requirements for your work visa application.

The visa requirements for tourists from African countries visiting Malaysia may vary. It is recommended to check with the Malaysian diplomatic mission or consulate in your home country for the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding visa requirements. They will be able to provide specific details on whether tourists from African countries are exempt from visa requirements or if they need to apply for a tourist visa before traveling to Malaysia.
@@visalibrary I'm talking about work permit.. You stated that it's for the approved countries. In which right now kenya is not approved. Will they ever approve or? Cos currently I'm in Malaysia on a social visit visa
@@Tedbrown22 Sorry for the confusion. As of June 7, 2023, Kenya is not listed as one of the approved countries for the Malaysian Work Permit, according to the Malaysian Immigration Department's official website. However, immigration policies can change over time, and it's recommended to regularly check with the Malaysian immigration authorities for any updates regarding the inclusion of Kenya in the list of approved countries.
@@visalibrary ooh okay. Thanks. About Student visa. How hard or easy is it to get it?

Generally, the process is relatively straightforward if you meet the necessary requirements and submit all the required documentation.
