MM2H visa

No difference getting the MM2H visa for anywhere in Malaysia. You just need to qualify.

Check out Alter Domus who advise people in Penang. It is not a State-based system*, for West Malaysia  everything is controlled and centralised in Putrajaya, at a specialised immigration centre.

*Sabah and Sarawak do have their own application system.

Thanks for your advice- it's appreciated. I still don't know how I'm going to do my wish to move to Malaysia- so I have lots of questions 😊

There is a specialised and pinned thread at the top of the list of topics under discussion - https://www.expat.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=592230

Just have to show liquid assets and monthly income. The fixed deposit placement after approval is now mandatory (everyone has to set up a FD). http://mm2h.gov.my/index.php/en/home/pr … conditions

The monthly income for retirees does not necessarily have to come from a government scheme, as there are few that operate this way these days with privatisation of pension savings. That is why an agent such as Alter Domus can help. https://www.penangmyhome.com/
