Renew Your Maid's Work Permit
Malaysia's Immigration Department (JIM) requires all employers to renew their maids' work permits every year.
To avoid penalties, it is strongly advised to renew the permit two to three months before the expiry date, as late renewal incurs a RM30 daily compound fee.
To complete a maid's work permit renewal, employers must first submit a renewal application to Malaysia Immigration (JIM). Before submission, the following steps are required:
Purchase the FOMEMA medical form and assign the respective clinic or hospital.
Send the maid for her FOMEMA medical check-up.
Once the medical result is marked "fit", AP Sands will handle the submission to Malaysia Immigration for permit renewal.
After the new permit is endorsed, AP Sands will advise employers to renew or purchase new insurance coverage.
AP Sands ensures a smooth, compliant, and timely renewal process, helping employers avoid penalties and delays.
When renewing your helper's work permit and employment contract, it is essential to ensure that all terms and conditions are clearly stated in the new agreement.
