Meaning to say that they will stamp your passport if you go to KL by plane while going thru the JB or Tuas custom, they will not stamp the passport ? Woah, Malaysia Boleh !

[thumbsup]

 

My whole family got the MACS stiker on the passports.

 

Was stamped on the passport for the plane trip to tioman and also penang n kl.

 

But we ever driven to CH, Penang just on MACS without stamp before.

 

MACS save hell a lot of passport pages and also avoid funny questions by immigration of other countries especially the US.

New counter to process Malaysia's fast-track clearance pass in Orchard
AsiaOne Travel | Thu, Mar 26 2015
Singaporeans can now apply for the Malaysia Automated Clearance System (MACS) pass at a new counter on the third floor of Orchard Parade Hotel.
Previously, pedestrians and motorists could only apply for the fast-track pass at counters at the Woodlands and Tuas checkpoints.
This has proven to be a minor inconvenience as the designated parking areas in the Customs, Immigration and Quarantine Complex (CIQ) complexes are limited, vendor Third Link said in a statement today. Moreover, first-time applicants travelling by car may not be familiar with the location, it added.
Travellers need not have their passports stamped with the MACS pass, as it is scanned upon entry and departure at Malaysian checkpoints.
There are also dedicated MACS lanes for motorists at the checkpoints, providing a faster customs clearance.
The new MACS branch counter in Singapore will process applications for all ordinary Singapore passports for $35, renewable annually. The passports must be valid for two years before expiry.
Inclusive of the $35 fee is a $15 charge levied by the Malaysian government for a successful application, which will be refunded if the application is rejected. The remaining portion of the fee is a service charge levied by Third Link, a Singapore-registered company appointed by the Malaysian government to provide immigration services. This $20 is non-refundable.
The new MACS branch counter is opened from 8.30am to 4.30pm from Monday to Friday. Applicants who submit their passports by 2pm can collect them back by 4pm the next day. Applications made after 2pm will be considered made the following day.
Non-Singaporeans or Singapore Permanent Residents who wish to apply for the MACS pass must possess a long-term visit pass or work permit with a validity of at least nine months.
Citizens from Columbia, Afghanistan, Israel, and all African countries are not eligible to apply.

DO at customs just need to wait a while (depends on number of people) , Orchard one must leave the passport with others for one day?

Unless you're travelling in and out everyday, isn't it better to fully utilize/maximize your passport's usage (pages)? Furher, with stamps on passport, it's better proof/evidence when there's a need arising.

Why burden their civil service when you can outsource and still charge higher.

Last time apply in JB cost RM$30. Now apply in Singapore cost SG$35 equivalent like RM$105. This is almost 3 times the price. Guess we are paying for the office rental some more located at Orchard Parade Hotel, the employee salary to run the office. [thumbsdown]
