Eligible employers applying for Bangladesh worker quota during the promotional period can enjoy a full application-fee waiver up to RM3.5k. Applications for other source countries remain available, but standard application fees may apply.
Foreign worker quota access is controlled by government policy and may not remain available in the same form indefinitely. In 2026, eligible employers have a renewed application route through the government-managed eQuota and FWCMS process. This creates an important opportunity for companies that have been delaying projects, limiting production or relying heavily on overtime because of insufficient manpower.
Nova Consultant may also support applications involving selected source countries, including Nepal, Myanmar, Indonesia, the Philippines and Vietnam, depending on sector eligibility and current requirements.
Preparation should begin before your manpower shortage becomes urgent.
Applications are processed through the designated government system and remain subject to official requirements and approval.
Companies that meet the applicable sector, operational and compliance requirements may proceed with a quota application.
Government policies, industry eligibility and application requirements may change. Preparing early gives your company more time to respond correctly.
