Thanx for your reply.

I have not any information on the process of getting EP for person , who will come on the tourist visa.

Do i need to describe the purpose of journey to malaysia while applying the tourist visa in india ? If yes, then what documents are required from malaysian employer in tourist visa process ?

Thanks

You can transfer to EP from your visit visa. they will add one sticker called Journey Performed and i think you need to pay extra 500 MYR
