I-CARD

INSURANCE CARD

All international students in Malaysia will be required to carry an I-Kad, which will contain key information including full name, passport number and institution. The I-Kad will act as a valid travel document for the Malaysian peninsular. It will cut out the need – and risk – for foreign students to carry around their passport at all times as a means of identification. Details can be checked and verified online.

It is compulsory for every student entering Malaysia to have medical insurance. You will be insured from the date you enter Malaysia if you inform your institution of the date as soon as you arrive.

All international students must be covered by a locally purchased medical health insurance scheme.
