Malaysia My Second Home is a long stay residence pass administered by the Immigration Department of Malaysia, with policy set alongside the Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture. It is structured by financial tier rather than by nationality, so Lebanese nationals can qualify on the same basis as other foreign applicants who meet a tier.
All applicants pass a medical examination and provide a certificate of good conduct from their home country. Confirm that your evidence and any country specific requirement meet the current standard with the official authority before you apply.
The revamped programme is organised into tiers. Public guidance describes a Silver tier from a fixed deposit of about USD 150,000 with a minimum property purchase, a Gold tier from about USD 500,000, and a Platinum tier from about USD 1,000,000, each with longer validity as the tier rises.
A separate category linked to designated economic zones is also described with lower thresholds. Part of the fixed deposit may be withdrawn later for approved purposes such as property, healthcare or education. Verify the current tiers and amounts with the authority.
Processing time is not a single fixed published figure and depends on the tier and the completeness of the file. A residence stay condition of at least ninety cumulative days per year is described in public guidance. Confirm the current steps and timing with the official authority.
The fixed deposit and the minimum property purchase are the main figures, with visa and processing fees on top. Use the table as an indicative guide only and confirm every figure with the official source before you act.
| Tier | Indicative fixed deposit | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Silver | From about USD 150,000 | With a minimum property purchase, shorter validity |
| Gold | From about USD 500,000 | With a higher minimum property purchase |
| Platinum | From about USD 1,000,000 | Longest validity, highest property minimum |
