Dependant Pass

You can apply for a Dependant Pass for your immediate family members (Parents, Spouse and Children only) through EMGS. Immigration will issue your dependants with a Long Term Social Visit Pass (LTSVP) for a maximum duration of 12 months at a time. The LTSVP will only be valid for as long as the student has a valid student pass.

This application will be made through the educational institution on behalf of your dependants who are in Malaysia. Each dependant who enters Malaysia on a social pass will be subject to a ‘Journey Performed’ visa fee of RM500 as well as a single entry visa fee (subject to nationality).

    my 3 dependent are going with me on social / visit pass/visa. will they have to pay journey performed visa fee 500 RM?

  9. Md Enamul Islam 7 years ago

    As far as I could learn from the EMGS website and the FAQs,

    1. Dependent visa can be applied by only post graduate students and PhD students only.
    2. Your dependent (Father Mother Wife or Kids) must be in your home country while your university make application to EMGS. If they remain in Malaysia than they must go back and send the entry/ exit stamps

    3. Please remember that No dependent can work with social pass in Malaysia.

    I hope your doubts are clarified. Still experts can give their opinion.

  11. Abeer Barakat 7 years ago
