How to get a driving license in Malaysia for Indian passport holder working here with Employment pass .
I have a valid Indian driving license till 2022. I cannot get a International driving license since my DL is from Bangalore and i cannot visit Bangalore in next 6 month.

I have to drive here in KL for my work meeting clients.

It will be great help if you can suggest the way to get the valid malaysian driving license.

You need to get your Indian Licence attested and then it is legal to use it in Malaysia

Confirmed by your HC - note procedure if the licence is not plastic with embedded chip

Hi Gravitas,

I understand that if the license is not the one with the micro-chip, it has to go to India for multiple attestations.

By any chance do you know any reliable agency in Kuala Lumpur that could take care of this attestation process. In Dubai, BLS offered the service in their office only.

Many thanks,
Abraham

Don't think there are any in Malaysia that will do this.
