20-year renewable Malaysian residency for affluent professionals with USD 1M deposit, RM 2M property, and permitted work/business rights.

Malaysia's MM2H Platinum programme is a premier long-term residency stream for high-net-worth individuals and strategic investors aged 25+. It requires a USD 1 million fixed deposit and minimum RM 2 million property purchase, positioning it as the most comprehensive tier of the MM2H programme originally launched in 2002.

The permit is renewable with 20-year validity. Fees are MYR 200,000 (principal participation) plus MYR 5,000 processing and MYR 2,500 per dependent. Holders may work part-time and conduct business/investment with employer authorization (DP10 form). Spouses face work restrictions; dependents may reside to age 35. Processing takes ~90 working days per MOTAC's Client Charter.

This visa is ideal for affluent expatriates seeking a long-term Malaysian base to integrate professionally and personally while maintaining business and investment opportunities.
