What is a VDR?

VDR means VISA with reference. Normally its letter from Malaysian immigration to submit in your host Malaysian consulate/embassy to get entry visa which can be possible to convert in student pass/dependent pass.

The university or its agent will handle the  process with immigration and usually clearance is needed from the country of departure.follow the instructions you have been given as nowadays  its not possible to get a student visa or associated passes after arriving and she risks having to fly back and wait for the correct paperwork.
