Step-by-Step MM2H Approval Process

Step 1: Initial Assessment
Determine eligibility based on age, financial status, and health requirements. Ensure all documents, including passport, medical check-up, financial proof, and personal information, are complete.

Step 2: Submit Application
Submit the application online or through an authorized MM2H agent like Expert Solutions Malaysia. The application should include:

Passport copy
Completed MM2H application form
Bank statements or proof of liquid assets
Offshore income proof

Police clearance certificate

Step 3: Application Review by MM2H Centre
The MM2H Centre will review your application and may request additional documents or clarifications. This process ensures compliance with program requirements.

Step 4: Conditional Approval
Once the application is approved, applicants receive a Conditional Approval Letter. At this stage, applicants are required to open a Malaysian bank account and place a fixed deposit depending on age:

Below 50 years: RM300,000 fixed deposit
50 years and above: RM150,000 fixed deposit

The fixed deposit can be partially withdrawn for approved expenses such as buying a house, medical costs, and children’s education.

Step 5: Visa Issuance
After fulfilling financial obligations and submitting proof of deposit, the MM2H visa (social visit pass) is issued. The visa is typically valid for 10 years and allows multiple entries.
