Whether you’re a retiree, investor, remote professional, or someone looking for a second home in Asia, Malaysia provides a stable, affordable, and culturally rich destination. The flagship Malaysia My Second Home (MM2H) programme offers a renewable 5-year residency visa for eligible applicants who invest in property and meet financial criteria.

What is MM2H?
