The current movement control order (MCO) is until the 12th of May 2020. However, we are unable to confirm when the travel ban will be lifted, to allow foreigners to enter Malaysia. As such, we are unable to advise whether you will be able to travel before the expiry of the Student Pass.
If you enter Malaysia before the expiry of the Student Pass and apply to change to another institution, you can remain in Malaysia during the processing of the application. However, you will be required to shorten the Student Pass and apply for a Special Pass through your new institution. In the event that the Immigration Department requests for an exit stamp, you will be required to exit the country. The approval to issue you with a visa approval letter (VAL) is solely at the discretion of the Immigration Department.
