Key Points
- Malaysia introduced Interim Endorsement Slips for long-term pass holders to serve as a temporary replacement for long-term pass stickers
Overview
The government of Malaysia began issuing Interim Endorsement Slips (IES) for holders of long-term passes issued by the Malaysian Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC). IESs must be kept as issued and serve as temporary replacements for long-term pass stickers.
The introduction of Interim Endorsement Slips (IES) is part of Malaysia’s effort to streamline and modernize its immigration processes for the digital economy sector. This temporary measure ensures that long-term pass holders can continue to reside and work in Malaysia without disruption while awaiting the issuance of their official pass stickers. By implementing the IES, the government aims to provide greater flexibility and convenience for foreign professionals in the digital economy, ensuring that Malaysia remains an attractive destination for global talent and investment.
