We’ve been informed about a message that is spreading false information. It claims that starting from 1 December 2025, UNHCR will begin official registration for Syrian and Yemeni applicants in Malaysia. It also encourages people to come to UNHCR for walk-in appointments and to get a UNHCR card.
This information is not true. There is no set date for registration for any specific nationality.
For accurate and up-to-date information about UNHCR’s services, please ensure to consult UNHCR’s official source — Refugee Malaysia website: https://refugeemalaysia.org/
UNHCR continues to process applications from Syrians, Yemenis, and others as usual as explained at the Refugee Malaysia website (Registering with UNHCR | Refugee Malaysia) . If you wish to apply for registration, please visit the Contact page. You will be contacted by phone, text message, or email to attend an interview at the UNHCR office.
