Thinking of importing food or agricultural products into Malaysia?
If you don’t have approval from MAQIS (Malaysia Quarantine and Inspection Services), your goods could be held at customs, leading to costly delays or even destruction.
What Is MAQIS?
MAQIS is a government agency that ensures the safety of food, plants, animals, and related products entering Malaysia. Any product related to food, agriculture, livestock, or plants must go through MAQIS inspection and approval before clearance.
Why Is MAQIS Approval Important?
✅ To protect consumer health and food safety
✅ To prevent the entry of pests, diseases, or harmful substances
✅ To comply with quarantine laws and international standards
What Happens If You Don’t Have MAQIS Approval?
❌ Your goods may be detained at the port of entry
❌ You may incur additional storage and inspection costs
❌ The items may be confiscated or destroyed
❌ You risk financial loss and shipment delays
What Products Need MAQIS Clearance?
🟠 Raw food products
🟠 Fresh fruits and vegetables
🟠 Meat and animal-based items
🟠 Seeds, plants, fertilizers
🟠 Animal feed and supplements
For example: Want to import apples from China or pet food from Thailand? Make sure you check MAQIS requirements first!
