Visas
Visa processing and the missions we submit to
We coordinate visa-processing enquiries for the destinations listed, and legalise the documents those applications depend on. For the UAE, the scope is document attestation. For a Malaysia Employment Pass, the employer files through the Expatriate Services Division. Use the directory to check mission contacts and confirm where to submit before visiting.

Embassy contacts and published addresses
These are published embassy addresses. A service may use a separate intake counter or provider, so confirm where to submit before visiting. Qatar's embassy address is in Putrajaya.
The Apostille Convention status column describes the country, rather than eligibility for every document. Malaysia does not issue Convention apostilles for Malaysian-issued documents. Check the issuing country and the receiving authority's instructions to establish the required route.

The documents behind the visa
Check the documents requested by the employer, sponsor, mission or other receiving authority. A visa application does not make every document follow an identical legalisation chain. Start with the issuing country, document type and destination to establish the required steps.

- 01
Check the document and intended use
Confirm the issuing country, document type, destination and receiving authority before arranging authentication.
- 02
Meet the document-specific prerequisite
Some categories require a notary, education authority or another issuing body. Original federal or state government documents can have different prerequisites from copies.
- 03
Wisma Putra, where required
Arrange Consular Division attestation after the applicable prerequisites; foreign-issued documents need a separate route check.
- 04
Destination requirements, where required
Confirm any mission endorsement, translation or further receiving-country attestation. These are possible stages, not four compulsory steps for every document.
Which route applies to employment in Malaysia?
The Expatriate Services Division (ESD) Employment Pass applies to expatriate positions in Peninsular Malaysia. The employer registers a company account on the ESD portal and files the application on behalf of the employee.
For eligible foreign-worker roles, Malaysian Immigration describes a separate Visitor's Pass (Temporary Employment), also called PLKS. Ask the employer which route applies before preparing documents. The guides here cover Employment Pass preparation and status checks.
Confirm the pass category and the documents requested by the employer before arranging any endorsements.

Questions
Which countries can you process visas for?
Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait, Bahrain, Egypt, Indonesia, the Philippines and Malaysia. For the United Arab Emirates we handle the document attestation rather than the visa, because the UAE visa is issued from their side.
My destination is not on your list. Can you still help?
Often yes, for the document legalisation side. Attestation covers many more countries than visa processing does, so send us the details.
Do you publish visa fees?
No. Fees and requirements differ by country, category and employer, and they change. We confirm the current position for your case before anything is submitted.
Can you handle applications for a whole team?
Yes. Employers and agencies use us for staff documents and visas in batches.
Is UAE visa processing the same as your UAE document service?
No. ThinkPlus handles UAE document attestation. The employer or sponsor normally arranges the UAE visa from the UAE side. Tell us which documents the receiving authority has requested.
