Process for Newborns of Employment Pass (EP) holders <\/strong><\/h1>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

What\u2019s new?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Apart from applying for the Dependant Pass (DP) of newborns to EP holders in Malaysia, effective immediately<\/strong>, it is now a requirement that a Special Pass (SP) must also be applied for whilst awaiting the process and outcome of the DP.<\/p>\n

    \n
  • For newborns between 1 \u2013 6 months old, the SP will be issued by the Immigration Cyberjaya in MDEC.<\/li>\n
  • For newborns 7 months old and onwards, the SP will be issued by the Enforcement Unit of Immigration Putrajaya<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    For DP applications that have already been approved prior<\/strong>to 9 Aug 2019 i.e.date of announcement from the eXpats Service Centre, MDEC (Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation), the following additional documents are required during the endorsement process \u2013<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Cover letter for Special Pass<\/li>\n
    2. Special Pass declaration form<\/li>\n
    3. Format A<\/li>\n
    4. A bank draft payable to Ketua Pengarah Imigresen Malaysia amounting RM100<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      What\u2019s the impact?<\/strong><\/h2>\n
        \n
      • Companies should ensure that all DP and SP applications are submitted within the first 6 months of the newborn\u2019s birth to avoid any possible challenges that may occur from obtaining the SP at the Enforcement Unit of the Immigration HQ.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
