Can I work in Malaysia?

How it works: Line staff: worker quotas for 15 Asian countries, frozen since March 2023 and not reopened for hotels. Others: Employment Pass at RM 5,000+ basic (about USD 1,150).

Watch for: Hotels were left out of the 2025 quota reopenings and no 2026 hotel opening was found. Sabah and Sarawak run their own immigration: a Peninsular pass is not valid there.

Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
