Why You Need a Notary for Malaysia Documents
Malaysia authorities — whether immigration, banking, legal, or professional licensing bodies — require that documents presented from Ireland bear the certification of a qualified notary public. A notarial certificate confirms the authenticity of the document and the identity of its signatory. For Malaysia, this is then typically followed by an apostille or, in some cases, embassy legalisation.
Documents Commonly Required for Malaysia
- Passport certified copy
- Degree and professional certificates
- Police clearance certificate
- Financial documents
- Marriage certificate
- Company documents
Common Uses for Malaysia-Bound Notarised Documents
- Malaysia My Second Home (MM2H) visa applications

Apostille and Legalisation for Malaysia
Malaysia is a Hague Apostille Convention country (having joined in 2019). Irish documents notarised by Hugh Phelan must be apostilled by the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs before submission to the Malaysian Immigration Department, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, or professional licensing bodies.
Malaysia's MM2H programme attracts retirees and remote workers. The programme has specific financial proof requirements — bank statements, income proof, and health insurance documentation all need to be in order and appropriately certified.
