MDEC has announced on October 9, 2024, that effective immediately, the collection of Pass Stickers / Pass at ESD SATELLITE CENTRE (ESC), KUALA LUMPUR INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT 1 (KLIA1) has resumed as usual. For arrivals other than KLIA1, the Pass endorsements are to be collected at Expats Service Centre.
At the time of the initial announcement, ESD (Expatriate Services Division) have not yet made any announcements of the same.
Erickson Insights & Analysis
Despite the resumption for MDEC registered companies and possibly also ESD registered companies, it is advised that all applicants not make any travel plans for at least 2 – 3 weeks upon entering Malaysia to ensure the endorsement can be completed (this is to buffer for just-in-case situations where the KLIA system is down on day of arrival).
