Thoughtful planning guides for your next chapter in Malaysia.
Working in MalaysiaWHEN THE ANSWER IS NOT STRAIGHTFORWARD
Not every situation
fits a standard category.
A previous application. A change of employer. An unusual family or business situation. Start a conversation about the details that make your case different.
Discuss your caseI’m not sure which option applies. Can ESC help?
Yes. Start with your nationality, current location, intended activity and preferred length of stay. ESC can review your circumstances before discussing a suitable approach.
Can I contact ESC while I am outside Malaysia?
Yes. You can begin through WhatsApp or prepare an enquiry on this website. Tell us your current country of residence and your planned move.
How much does professional assistance cost?
The scope and complexity of each case are different. ESC provides a quotation after assessment, distinguishing professional fees from applicable government charges and third-party expenses.
Can ESC guarantee approval or a processing date?
No. Decisions and processing remain with the relevant authorities. Timing can depend on the route, documentation and further requests. Any estimate should be discussed after reviewing your case.
What should I send in my first message?
Your name, nationality, current location, objective and a brief description of the situation are enough to begin. Avoid sending sensitive identity, financial or medical documents before a suitable sharing method is agreed.
Your next chapter
