Arrival Card (Immigration Card/ White Card/ White Card) requirement for entry into Johor Bahru

July 12th, 2008 admin

 There are news circulating that the requirement of the Arrival Card (also known as the Immigration Card/ White Card/ White Form) for entry into Johor Bahru (Johor Baru, Johore Bahru, Johor Baharu) may be re-implemented. This requirement is formally waivered on 19th Jan 2008.

Yes. To repeat, there is a possibility that you will be REQUIRED to fill up your Arrival Card (Immigration Card/ White Card) at the Johor Bahru custom. The days of long sweaty queues are coming back. Whether you are driving into Johor Bahru or walking in, it is time to bring back your portable fans, magazines subscription and install new games on your mobile phones to last the potential wait.

The exact date of this re-implementation is unknown. Tentatively, the “Go-Live” date when the Arrival Card (Immigration Card/ White Card) requirement will come in place will be on 16th July 2008. A verbal check with a Johor Custom official indicates the similar date.

In the typical fashion, there is no official announcement at the Immigration Department of Malaysia website here: http://www.imi.gov.my/eng/im_Page1.asp.

Frustrations added to frustrations.
