Components

Immigration Checkpoint

The immigration checkpoint has different checkpoints for motorcycles and cars. The checkpoint was designed with 78 counters for cars entering Malaysia, and 39 counters for those departing from Malaysia. There are 50 counters in each direction for motorcycles entering and departing Malaysia. The Secured Automated Clearance System for Malaysian Citizen Motorcyclists (M-BIKE) is provided here for all Malaysian citizen motorcyclists. Buses and coaches drop passengers outside separate buildings on both sides of the immigration checkpoint; after clearing entry or exit immigration checks depending on the direction of travel, passengers board the same vehicle that dropped them off.
