Family-sponsored extended stay pass for foreign nationals aged 60+ in Malaysia with local relatives.
The Long-Term Social Visit Pass (LTSVP) is a Malaysian immigration provision for foreign nationals aged 60 and above who have family members already established in Malaysia. It recognizes the cultural importance of multi-generational households and enables elderly parents to reside long-term with their Malaysian citizen or permanent resident sponsors in a stable legal environment.
This pass permits an initial stay of 1 year and is renewable for extended residence with family. Spouses cannot work under this visa. Processing time and fees vary by case. Required documentation includes Forms Imm.12, Imm.55, and Imm.38, plus a Personal Bond stamped with RM10.00 revenue.
This visa is ideal for elderly parents aged 60 and above seeking to spend their later years in close proximity to adult children and grandchildren already living in Malaysia.
