Family reunification pass for spouses and children of Employment Pass and Student Pass holders in Malaysia.
The Dependent Pass is Malaysia's family reunification visa for spouses and unmarried children under 18 of Employment Pass or Student Pass holders. The principal's employer petitions on behalf of the dependent. Applicants must provide proof of relationship (marriage/birth certificates) and the sponsor's valid EP or SP.
Processing takes 14 working days. The ESD application fee is MYR 500 (MYR 540 with 8% SST), plus MYR 90 annually for the DP endorsement and MYR 50 immigration processing fee. Dependents can reside for the duration of the sponsor's pass but cannot work; to seek employment, they must convert to an Employment Pass separately.
