IMPLEMENTATION OF EXIT CLEARANCE FOR EXPIRED RESIDENCE PASS–TALENT (RP-T) HOLDERS EFFECTIVE 18 NOVEMBER 2025
In line with the directive from the Ministry of Home Affairs (MOHA), the Immigration Department of Malaysia (JIM) now requires all RP-T holders, including their dependents, to complete a Pass Shortening process prior to their permanent departure from Malaysia.
Please take note of the following procedures before leaving Malaysia:
Effective 18 November 2025, if no renewal or pass-shortening application is submitted after the pass expiry date, RP-T holders will be required to update their Exit Clearance status via the RP-T system.
The system will send an automated email notification within one month of the pass expiry date, prompting RP-T holders to update their Exit Clearance Status under the Update Details section.
Failure to comply within one month of the notification may result in the deactivation of the RP-T account.
Please note that this arrangement shall remain in effect, subject to further instructions or an official directive from the Immigration Department of Malaysia (JIM).
