The Malaysian government will require employers to register with government authorities in February in order to hire foreign nationals under the Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation.
Key Points:
Additional Information: The registration requirement does not affect work and immigration authorizations that were issued before Jan. 1, 2023.
BAL Analysis: Employers should seek to obtain an approval letter or have proof of registration with the JTKSM as soon as possible to avoid delays when applying for Work Pass projections.
