Essential Pillars for a Successful Residency
To maintain your MM2H status in Malaysia, participants must adhere to several key mandatory conditions. All primary applicants and their dependents are required to undergo a medical check-up at a licensed Malaysian clinic and maintain valid medical insurance coverage throughout their stay.
Furthermore, a Letter of Good Conduct (LOGC) is mandatory for all applicants aged 18 and above. For those under 50, a cumulative annual stay of 90 days in Malaysia is required to ensure the long-term success of your residency and investment. At ISR Global, we ensure you remain fully compliant with these MOTAC regulations, securing your family's future in your new second home.
