Is dependent pass of Expatriates able to work in Malaysia?

8 years ago
Hi all,

I've arrived in Kuala lumpur for 3 months.

My husband is a software developer. He got a work permit DP10 and brought me here. I have 6 years of experience in web/app development and 1 year of management.

I'd like to go work but when i research for information, i got some confusion on can or can't work in Malaysia with dependent pass of expatriate.

Can anyone please give me an advice if I can work here with my current dependent pass? Or do I need to exchange it to another kind of work permit?

Thanks for your help!
Coleen
