Imigresen henti sah laku pasport lebih 10 tahun
Imigresen berkata pemegang pasport bagi tempoh itu akan diberikan ganti pasport percuma dengan tempoh sah laku maksimum 10 tahun sahaja.
Malaysia's immigration chief, Zakaria Shaaban, has explained that despite ICAO having no restriction on holding a Malaysian passport for over 10 years, some international airlines have caused confusion. The issue arose during the registration process at various foreign airlines. Holders of passports valid for more than 10 years will be issued a passport free of charge with a maximum validity of 10 years.
The problem occurs when the validity period over 10 years is interpreted differently by some airlines. The validity period over 10 years will be suspended until the issue is resolved by the airline and the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). Passport holders will be given priority in the passport replacement process, according to the statement.
This statement was issued in response to the issue of some Malaysian passport holders facing difficulties traveling abroad due to their passports being valid for more than 10 years. In response, Zakaria said the department has referred the matter to ICAO and the response has not prevented Malaysian passport validity from exceeding 10 years.
