Current MM2H Categories

Malaysia currently offers Silver, Gold, Platinum and Special Economic Zone/Special Financial Zone categories.
Category Fixed Deposit Pass Term Minimum Property
Silver USD 150,000 5 years, renewable RM600,000
Gold USD 500,000 15 years, renewable RM1,000,000
Platinum USD 1,000,000 20 years, renewable RM2,000,000
SEZ/SFZ, age 21–49 USD 65,000 10 years, renewable Forest City property under Johor rules
SEZ/SFZ, age 50+ USD 32,000 10 years, renewable Forest City property under Johor rules
A maximum of 50% of the approved fixed deposit may later be withdrawn for permitted expenses such as residential property, education, medical treatment and tourism activities in Malaysia.

MM2H Age and Stay Requirements

The minimum principal-applicant age is:

  1. 25 years for Silver, Gold and Platinum
  2. 21 years for the SEZ/SFZ category

Participants below age 50 must generally complete at least 90 cumulative days in Malaysia each year. The requirement may be fulfilled by the principal applicant and/or registered dependants under the applicable category rules. Applicants aged 50 or above currently have no minimum annual stay requirement.

Compulsory Property Purchase

MM2H participants must purchase and own an eligible Malaysian residential property after receiving approval.

The property generally cannot be sold for ten years, except when upgrading to another property of a higher value. The SEZ/SFZ category currently requires the purchase of property in Forest City, Johor, subject to Johor’s applicable property-acquisition policy.

Applicants should normally demonstrate:

  1. Relevant business ownership or management experience
  2. Genuine control over the Canadian enterprise
  3. An active operational role in Canada
  4. A viable and well-researched business plan
  5. Sufficient funds to establish and operate the business
  6. Lawful and traceable source of investment funds
  7. Credible financial and employment projections
  8. Meaningful Canadian economic, social or cultural benefit
  9. Compliance with general work-permit and admissibility requirements

A passive investment, shell company or business created only to obtain a work permit is unlikely to satisfy the C11 standard.

MM2H Government and Participation Fees

 
Charge Current Amount
Processing fee—principal RM5,000
Processing fee—each dependant RM2,500
Silver participating fee RM1,000
Gold participating fee RM3,000
Platinum participating fee RM200,000
SEZ/SFZ participating fee RM1,000
Fixed pass fee RM500 per year
Visa charges may also apply according to nationality. Government, licensed-agent, medical, insurance, property and professional charges are separate.

Can You Work or Operate a Business?

Under the current federal category rules:

  1. Platinum participants may conduct business, investment activities and pursue career opportunities.
  2. Gold, Silver and SEZ/SFZ participants are not automatically permitted to conduct business or pursue employment under their MM2H category.

Any employment or business activity must comply with the specific MM2H category and Malaysian immigration, company and licensing requirements.

Who Can Be Included?

A principal applicant may generally include:

  1. A spouse
  2. Biological, adopted or stepchildren below age 21
  3. Unmarried and unemployed children aged 21 to 34
  4. Medically certified disabled children without an age limit
  5. Parents
  6. Parents-in-law

Platinum participants may also include a foreign domestic helper under the applicable procedures.

Dependent children may study at recognised Malaysian educational institutions, subject to the relevant MM2H or Student Pass requirements.

Documents Commonly Required

The precise checklist depends on the selected category and family composition. Common documents may include:

  1. Valid passports
  2. CV or personal profile
  3. Police-clearance or good-conduct certificate
  4. Proof of family relationships
  5. Financial and source-of-funds documents
  6. Bank statements
  7. Medical documents
  8. Health-insurance evidence where applicable
  9. Passport photographs
  10. Personal bond
  11. Certified English translations
  12. Property and fixed-deposit evidence after approval

Marriage and birth documents may require certified true copies, and documents not in English must be translated through an accepted authority.

A spouse and dependent children may apply for the appropriate temporary status.

A spouse is not automatically guaranteed an open work permit. Under the rules in effect from January 21, 2025, spouses of high-skilled workers may qualify where the principal applicant will work in:

  1. A TEER 0 management occupation
  2. A TEER 1 professional occupation
  3. Certain selected TEER 2 or 3 occupations

The principal applicant’s work authorisation generally must remain valid for at least 16 months when the spouse’s application is received. Dependent children are no longer eligible for open work permits under this general high-skilled-worker measure.

Children may apply to study or attend school subject to the applicable Canadian

MM2H Application Process

After conditional approval, the applicant completes the required financial, medical, property and immigration formalities.
The required fixed deposit must be placed with a qualifying Malaysian financial institution.
The principal applicant and dependants must undergo the required medical examination at an appointed Malaysian panel clinic or hospital. The compulsory property purchase must also be completed according to the category conditions.
