‘Get a travel pass to study abroad’

PETALING JAYA: From this year, students who receive an offer to study abroad must apply for a travel pass from the Immigration Department.

This requirement, which took effect on May 17, was updated in a department directive that was later shared on its website and Twitter.

Immigration Department director-general Datuk Khairul Dzaimee Daud (pic) said all new students travelling abroad “must apply through the department’s MyTravelPass system”.

“New students are required to upload their offer letter on the MyTravelPass system.

“Existing students are required to show their student card, ” he said yesterday, referring to students who are returning to their campuses for physical learning.
