  You need transfer your current student pass/visa first in your new passport before you can submit for renewal. Please refer to the transfer of student pass/visa section.
 

4. I had renewed my passport but my student pass is expiring soon. I do not think I have ample time for the transfer of student pass process. Can I submit for the renewal straightly? If yes, should I submit a copy of new passport or old passport?

  • It is not advisable to do so unless due to unavoidable reason & circumstances, you may submit for student pass renewal.
  • You need to submit a copy of your new passport. However, if your current student visa and your current/latest entry date stamp is in your old passport you are also required to submit your old passport copies.
  • Entry date stamp is the blue stamp that you got at Immigration KLIA during your entry into Malaysia.
