Immigration deals with sometimes complicated and ever changing laws controlling entry in Malaysia.
Immigration law is the nation's border gatekeeper. The law determines who may enter, the duration of stay, when they must leave, whether a person is an alien, their duties and obligations in Malaysia. The Immigration Department Of Malaysia is a department under the the Malaysia Ministry of Home Affairs and enforces the immigration laws. The Immigration Department Malaysia has a duty to keep out aliens who have a criminal record, aliens who are not able to finance themselves and people who are lying about their intentions for coming to Malaysia. To enter Malaysia, generally the Malaysian Embassy or Consulate in your home country will give you a visa, stamped into your Passport.
