The Immigration Department has appointed three companies to assist in the rehiring programme for E-Card holders until June 30, says director-general Mustafar Ali.

He said International Marketing and Net Resources Sdn Bhd (Iman) would manage illegal immigrants from Indonesia.

Another two companies, Syarikat Bukti Megah Sdn Bhd (Myanmar) and Konsortium PMF, will handle illegal immigrants from all other countries.

He added the E-Card programme was implemented from Feb 15 to June 30 last year to enable illegal immigrants and their employers to obtain travel documents or passports at the respective embassies for rehiring purposes.

“The E-Cards are valid until today.

“The applications of illegal immigrants with E-cards for the rehiring programme can be processed from now until June 30,” he said in a statement today.

According to Mustafar, the department’s enforcement division would always conduct operations and inspections on the E-Card holders to ensure they possessed valid passports for the rehiring process.

He said if the E-Card holders failed to submit their passports after today, action will be taken under the existing laws.

“E-Card holders who are not eligible for the rehiring programme will be processed for repatriation to their respective countries under the 3+1 programme, through vendors which had conducted registration for the illegal immigrants,” he said.

No extension for E-card registration, says Immigration Department
