  • Private sector employees originating from other states but are working in Sarawak. They are also required to show a confirmation letter from their employer and a valid Work Permit before being allowed to travel to Sarawak.
  • Non-Sarawakians who are married to Sarawakians. They must produce a valid marriage certificate before being allowed to board a flight or a vessel or pass through an ICQS to enter the State.
