MM2H Silver
Understand the federal Silver category, its published headline commitments and the questions to resolve before applying.
The Silver category
Silver is one of MOTAC’s standard federal MM2H categories, alongside Gold and Platinum. It belongs to the federal programme; Sabah’s similarly named categories follow separate state terms.
Published headline figures
MOTAC’s linked category overview lists these figures for Silver:
- Fixed deposit: USD150,000.
- Programme term: 5 years, renewable under the applicable conditions.
- Residential purchase minimum: RM600,000.
These are selected figures, not the complete eligibility conditions or the total cost. The approved pass and endorsement remain subject to the applicable terms and passport validity. Read the official category overview (external website) alongside the full federal terms (external website) before relying on a figure.
Questions to resolve
Ask which current terms apply to your application, including age, dependants, annual stay, permitted activities, property timing and retention, medical requirements, fees and renewal. Confirm whether any later announcement modifies the documents linked here. A category name does not establish your personal eligibility.
Some details require clarification across the official documents, so this guide does not turn them into a complete comparison table. In particular, do not infer permission to work, a tax outcome or an exemption from an annual-stay condition from this summary.
Where to check and apply
Start with MOTAC’s MM2H portal (external website) and its current application documents. Check the appointed operator’s legal entity and current licence before signing or paying. Our operator appointment guide can help you prepare that conversation.
MM2H.org explains the options independently. We do not accept MM2H applications, determine eligibility or represent the authorities.
