The Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC) has announced that, effective March 1, 2025, an Electronic Pass (ePASS) will be issued for the pass endorsement procedure for Foreign Knowledge Workers (FKW) including their dependents.
With the implementation of ePASS, companies may download and print the ePASS from the system.
MDEC notes the following:
- The FKW, and any dependents, must present the ePASS together with their passport for identification.
- The ePass will only be issued when the FKW, and any dependents, is physically present in Malaysia.
