Your Affordable Gateway to Southeast Asia
Malaysia offers a welcoming, investor-friendly environment through its Residency by Investment programs, most notably the Malaysia My Second Home (MM2H) Program. This initiative allows foreign nationals and their families to obtain long-term residency while enjoying Malaysia’s high quality of life, cultural diversity, and low cost of living.
✅ Malaysia My Second Home (MM2H) Program
The MM2H program grants a renewable 10-year residence visa to eligible investors, retirees, professionals, and families.
🧾 Key Requirements:
As of the latest update (2024), MM2H applicants must fulfill financial and investment criteria, including:
- Fixed deposit in a Malaysian bank:
- RM 1,000,000 (approx. USD 210,000) for main applicant
- Additional RM 50,000 per dependent
- Monthly offshore income of RM 40,000 (approx. USD 8,500)
- Liquid assets of at least RM 1,500,000 (approx. USD 320,000)

Note: Requirements may differ by region. Certain Malaysian states (e.g., Sarawak and Sabah) have their own MM2H schemes with lower thresholds.
