The Employment Pass is Malaysia's work visa for foreign professionals hired by a Malaysian company, sponsored by the employer.
The Malaysia Employment Pass (EP) allows skilled foreign nationals, including Indian professionals, to work for a Malaysian company in managerial, technical or specialist roles. It is sponsored by the employer and tied to a specific job and salary.
Employment Passes are generally issued in categories based on salary and contract length, and are valid for the duration of the employment contract. Family members can usually join on a Dependent Pass. Our team helps coordinate the documents between you and your employer.
