Malaysia My Second Home (MM2H)

Malaysia My Second Home (MM2H) is a long-term, residency-by-investment visa program initiated by the Malaysian government. It allows eligible foreign nationals to live in Malaysia on a renewable multiple-entry Social Visit Pass without needing citizenship or employment.

The program operates under a tiered framework structure with specific financial thresholds, mandatory residential property purchases, and age regulations.

Core Requirements

To successfully apply for the MM2H program, applicants must satisfy several strict structural benchmarks:

  • Physical Residency: The principal visa holder must physically spend a cumulative minimum of 90 days per year inside Malaysia.

  • Property Purchase: Buying a residential property in Malaysia is mandatory across all categories. The property value threshold varies by state and tier.

  • Health & Insurance: All applicants must pass a local medical examination and maintain valid medical insurance cover within Malaysia.

  • Authorized Submission: Applications cannot be self-submitted; they must be managed via a licensed, government-approved MM2H Tour Operating Agency.

Key Benefits for Foreigners

  • Tax Advantages: Malaysia operates on a territorial tax system, meaning there is no tax levied on foreign-sourced income or foreign pensions brought into the country.

  • Family Inclusion: Principals can bring eligible dependents, including legally wedded spouses, unmarried children (under 34 years old), and parents or parents-in-law.

  • Domestic Help: Program participants are permitted to employ one foreign domestic helper, subject to standard immigration rules.

  • Infrastructure Access: Holders enjoy unrestricted access to the country's local banking networks, premier private healthcare systems, and international school networks.
