DEPENDANT PASSES
The spouse and children of an expatriate who has been granted a work permit can stay in this
country during the duration of his/her employment.
Legal spouse and children
The application for the Dependent Pass will have to be supported by a copy of the marriage
certificate and birth certificate of each of the children respectively. Original documents are
required for sighting by the Immigration authorities. Expatriates travelling to this country are
advised to bring along all such necessary documents. A spouse holding a Dependent Pass is not
permitted to work. Where a spouse wishes to work, a separate work permit must be applied for.
Children from previous marriage(s)
Where dependent passes are required for adopted/step-children/children of spouse from a
previous marriage, original letters of adoption or custody are needed to support the said
application.
Common Law wife
It is not the policy of The Malaysian Immigration Department to issue a Dependent Pass to a
Common Law wife of an expatriate granted a work permit. The authorities would however,
consider an application for a Temporary Visit Pass. The said pass may be granted up to 12
months, and is renewable yearly. To support the application a letter from the embassy
confirming the status of the Common Law wife would have to be provided with the application.
STUDENT PASS
The children of expatriates enrolled to the schools in Malaysia are required to apply for a
Student Pass. A letter of acceptance from the school is required for the application.

Employment/Temporary Employment Pass
An Employment Pass is issued for a work permit application that has been approved for more
than 12 months. A Temporary Employment Pass is issued for a work permit application that has
been approved for 12 months or less. The said pass is subject to levy charges applicable at the
time of the application for the said pass. Levy charges may vary and is subject to change
without notice.
Professional Visit Pass
A Professional Visit Pass is granted to visiting professionals for the purpose of conducting
training, seminar, etc. This is normally for a brief period of time between one to three months.
Applications are made preferably one month before training/work commences. The said
personnel should not be in the country while the same is being processed. The local company
may pay for food, lodging and airfare of the visiting expatriate but the company overseas pays
the remuneration of the visiting expatriate. Before the application can be submitted to the
Malaysian Immigration Department, tax clearance will have to be obtained from the Inland
Revenue Board. Although the visiting expatriate will not be paid any remuneration by the local
company, tax clearance is still required. A local sponsor who is the authorised signatory of the
company making the application, normally a Manager or a Director, is required to sign a
Personal Bond for the air-ticket fare.
