MM2H Visa Renewal

All MM2H visas, regardless of category, are eligible for renewal for an additional 5 years once the applicant has completed the initial term specified under their visa type. We strongly recommend that MM2H participants begin the renewal process at least 6 months prior to the visa’s expiration.

Applicants and their dependents are required to be physically present in Malaysia to finalise the renewal process.

  15. Two passport-sized photographs with a blue background – If the photo has a different background colour, you can send it to us, or we can take the photo at our office for an additional charge.

All documents should be submitted to us at least 2 days prior to our visit to the MM2H Centre.

The renewal submission at the MM2H Centre typically takes 1 working day to process. However, if there are any system issues at the centre, processing may be delayed by 1 or 2 working days, depending on the situation.

The MM2H Centre usually takes around 3 months (or longer) to review and process your submission. We will notify the applicant(s) once we have received the new Approval Letter for their renewal endorsement.

Applicant(s) have 6 months from the date on the new Approval Letter to complete the endorsement. We highly recommend that applicant(s) complete their endorsement as early as possible to avoid any unexpected issues, such as system failures at the MM2H Centre.

      1. If the new passport was renewed through the embassy in Malaysia, please provide the courier envelope or any supporting documentation from the embassy, such as the receipt or email confirmation related to the passport renewal.
      2. For passports renewed outside of Malaysia, the applicant must enter Malaysia manually and ensure that the new passport is stamped with the Malaysia Entry Stamp.  Avoid using Fastlane/E-Gate/MM2H Lane/Special Lane, and do not present the old passport unless specifically requested.
    2. Original old passport containing the previous MM2H visa – This must be invalidated by trimming one corner of the passport cover.

All required documents must be submitted to us at least 2 days before our visit to the MM2H Centre.

The renewal endorsement process at the MM2H Office typically takes 1 working day, and the passport(s) will be returned to the applicant(s) the next day. However, if there are any technical issues with the MM2H system, the processing time may be extended by 1 or 2 working days (or longer), delaying the return of the passport(s).
