Question

Accepted Answer

The Cost of a PLKS for Fishermen Includes a Base Fee and Additional Charges for Pass Changes

The Temporary Employment Visit Pass (PLKS) for foreign fishermen in the fishing subsector carries a permit fee of RM505. Furthermore, an additional RM500 is levied for each new application specifically for the purpose of changing passes.
Base Permit Fee for Fishing Subsector

The standard fee for the PLKS permit within the fishing subsector is set at RM505. This fee covers the basic requirement for foreign fishermen to hold a valid work permit.
Additional Fee for Pass Changes

Beyond the initial permit fee, a supplementary charge of RM500 is applied. This additional cost is incurred when a new application is made with the specific intention of changing an existing pass.
Enforcement Following Moratorium Expiry

These fees are applicable as the Immigration Department prepares to take immediate enforcement action against foreign fishermen who have not yet secured their PLKS after the moratorium expired on December 31, 2021. This measure aligns with a 2021 decision by the Joint Committee of the Home Minister and Human Resources Minister.
