PASSPORT means a valid Travel Document that has been issued by the Government to a citizen for the purpose of travel to permitted countries unless special approval is obtained for prohibited countries.

Passports are the property of the Government of Malaysia and can be revoked at any time.

To care for a Malaysian passport, Key Care Instructions are as follows:

Store Properly: Keep it in a dry, safe place away from magnetic items to avoid damaging the electronic chip.

Protect the Document: Use a passport cover to protect the booklet from wear and tear.

Avoid Physical Damage: Do not fold, bend, or damage the laminate on the data page.

Prevent Water/Heat Damage: Keep it away from liquids and high temperatures.

Make Copies: Always keep photocopies of the data page and important visas in a separate location for emergencies.

Validity Check: Ensure your passport is valid for at least 6 months beyond your travel date.
