Hey guys,

Anyone who was able to open a bank account using a Digital Nomad Visa in Malaysia?
I am trying to open it now most of them are asking me a letter from the company (my company is outside of Malaysia and some of them even tell me that, the company has to be registered in Malaysia). I asked my company that docs, will try it tomorrow again, but it would be nice to knowledge on someone who was already open an account.

I have Wise account, but to cash out I need a local bank account. Also, Wise is only allowed to store 20K MYR (I opened Wise using a Malaysia VISA).

Worst case scenario just use touchngo. It’s practically a bank account, just that using an atm is expensive.
