PETALING JAYA: Foreigners who have stayed longer from January 1 to 14 days after the conclusion of the movement control order (MCO) can leave the country without repercussions, says the Immigration Department.

However, this room for maneuver is only granted to those who had entered with a social visit pass.

“They are allowed to return to their home country without obtaining a special pass from the Immigration Department.

“No action will be taken against those who leave within this period. They will also not be blacklisted,” Immigration Director General Datuk Khairul Dzaimee Daud said in a statement Tuesday (May 5).

However, foreigners who entered with a Visitor Pass – Temporary Employment (PLKS), must still follow the available rules to return to their country of origin.

He added that bestsellers who do not leave within 14 days of the MCO’s completion must obtain evidence and justifications from their respective embassies as to why they were unable to leave.

Failure to do so, he said, will lead to action and blacklisting.
