Hello everyone,

I am Australian citizen and have recently received my MM2H visa. My visa and my passport both expire in 2025.

When renewing an Australian passport we have to surrender our old passport in order to receive a new one.

My question is, will the department of Immigration in Malaysia require to see my old passport with the visa in it (which I would've surrendered in order to get my new passport)?

Just a bit confused about how the visa renewal process works..

I'd be grateful for any advice..

Thank you
Steven

First an extension to get the balance of the 10 years will need to be applied for, once you get your new passport. https://www.penangmyhome.com/mm2h-extension.

Other countries return the old passport cancelled, when applying for a new one.
