Further more, visas are not always available and may be revoked. It is not always issued, so it is better to get it when you can get it.
For long-term stay, a "passport" and "visa" are required. A visa is a proof that a person who wishes to travel (enter) the foreign country. A passport is a proof that a government will allow you to leave your country.
In Malaysia, a long-stay visa is required for long-stay, and a typical example is the MM2H Visa.
The following three are typical visas including the MM2H Visa.
This visa should be obtained if you want to stay in Malaysia as a long stay after retirement (semi-retirement) or if you want to use to stay in Malaysia for a long term while leaving your home country.

※MM2H Visas are issued according to the remaining validity period of the applicant's passport, and will not be issued beyond that.
