You are required to apply the student pass through the Taylor’s International Office. However should there be any changes in the policies set by the Malaysian Immigration Department and Ministry of Education (MOE), it is pertinent that students abide with the conditions set.
Since February 2013, the Malaysia Ministry of Education has established Education Malaysia Global Services (EMGS) as the one-stop centre to process the student pass of all international students studying in private institutions in Malaysia.
Please ensure that your passport has a validity of at least 18 months. Once Taylor’s receives all required documents from you, the International Office (IO) will submit your student pass approval application to EMGS. EMGS will thoroughly vet your application and qualification. If you are eligible, EMGS will endorse your application and submit to Immigration for final approval.
If Immigration approves, you will be issued the Visa Approval Letter (VAL). EMGS will notify Taylor’s to collect the VAL once it’s ready. Taylor’s will then notify you and send the VAL to you. The whole process of the student pass application may take approximately 8 weeks. This duration is just estimation and it is dependent on EMGS and Immigration.
Single Entry Visa (SEV) with VAL reference is required for selected nationalities entering Malaysia as a student.
Kindly contact the nearest Malaysian High Commission/Malaysian Embassy/Consulate or visit http://www.kln.gov.my/web/guest/mission to obtain the SEV (if applicable) before purchasing your flight tickets to enter Malaysia.
Upon receiving the VAL and SEV (if applicable), you can start making preparations to Malaysia to start a new chapter at Taylor’s University. Airport pick up is available for new students. Kindly fill up the E-request from the Pre-Boarding Checklist page.

IO will help to submit your passport to EMGS for student pass and visa endorsement. The endorsement process may take approximately six (6) - eight (8) weeks. This duration is just estimation and is dependent on EMGS and Immigration.
Your Student Pass approval is subject to your post arrival medical health check report. We will notify you via email or phone call should your report is failed. Appealing of medical health check report is subject to the approval from the EMGS.
Effective from 1 Oct 2014, all international students will receive an iKad (International Students Card) once your student pass has been endorsed.
