The scope of MACS facility is expanded to frequent traveler of Citizens and Permanent Residents of Singapore and also for those who have been issued with the relevant long term immigration pass and frequently travel within Malaysia and Singapore for the purpose of working, studying and staying in Malaysia.

Hence, MACS holders can benefit faster immigration processing via access to dedicated entry and exit MACS lanes at:
i. Bangunan Sultan Iskandar, Johor Bahru
ii. Kompleks Sultan Abu Bakar, Tanjung Kupang, Johor

MACS holders will also be excluded from the requirement of completing the immigration arrival card (IMM.26). Consequently, entry and exit to/from Malaysia records shall be made online and the usage of passport pages for stamping will be minimized.

Spouses and dependents (children) of MACS holders are also entitled to apply this facility with the condition that they have been issued with the relevant immigration pass.

Note:
MACS is simply a form of fast-track facilitation and does not act as an immigration pass or visa. Visitors are still required to obtain visa (if applicable) and will be issued with relevant immigration pass.
