G-2 Document Checklist [Malaysian/ PR employer hiring an Indonesian domestic helper for housekeeping]

Published on 16 Feb 2024, last updated on 20 Jun 2024

When hiring an Indonesian domestic helper in Malaysia, the Malaysian Labour Department (JTK) and Immigration Department require certain employer documents for the visa application. The exact documents required depend on your civil status (single, married, divorced), the purpose of hiring (childcare, elderly care, housekeeping) and the number of foreign domestic helpers you are hiring for your household.

This document checklist is for Malaysian/ PR Employers hiring an Indonesian domestic helper to assist with Housekeeping. If you're unsure about which documents to provide or need assistance, please reach out to the Pinkcollar team for guidance and support.

Due to the differences in Malaysian Immigration procedures across state Immigration units, only Malaysian employers who reside outside of Kuala Lumpur, Selangor and Johor (e.g. Perak and Penang) are allowed to hire their first foreign domestic helper for housekeeping purposes.
