The National Integrated Immigration System (Malay: Sistem Imigresen Bersepadu Nasional; also known as NIISe)[1] is a digital immigration ecosystem developed by HeiTech Padu Berhad (HeiTech Padu)[2] for the Immigration Department of Malaysia. It replaced the Malaysian Immigration Integrated Management System, a two decade old legacy immigration management system which became obsolete and full of vulnerabilities.[3]

History

Prior to NIISe, Prestariang Berhad signed a concession agreement in 2017 to develop the National Immigration Control System (Malay: Sistem Kawalan Imigresen Nasional; SKIN).[4] However on 10 December, 2019, the project was scrapped by the Pakatan Harapan government favouring a more cost effective alternative.[5] Prestariang SKIN later agreed to a RM201.45 million settlement with the government on 24 March, 2025.[6] On 25 May, 2022, a Iris Corporation Berhad subsidiary secured a Ministry of Home Affairs (KDN) contract worth RM1.12 billion to develop NIISe within a period of 54 months.[7][8] On 23 May, 2023 the contract was extended by 12 months[9] before it was terminated by KDN later on 10 August for material breach of timeline.[10][11][12]

On 18 October, 2024, the NIISe contract worth RM892.2 million was awarded to HeiTech Padu after a request for proposal also participated by Theta Edge and Dagang NeXchange.[13] The contract value was subsequently raised by RM157.8 million to RM1.05 billion due to the addition of an Automated Biometric Identification System.[14][2]

MyGate QR

MyTrip and MyRentas were made available for Malaysians as the first proof of concept for QR code autogate on 1 June, 2024, MyTrip was embedded in MySejahtera and utilised in Sultan Abu Bakar Complex (KSAB) while MyRentas was utilised in Sultan Iskandar Building (BSI).[16][17] Following the successful trial phase, MyTrip and MyRentas were phased out in July 2024 and transitioned to MyBorderPass, the second proof of concept.[18][19][20] MyBorderPass is available in BSI, KSAB, Kuala Lumpur International Airport Terminal 1 and 2 (KLIA T1 & T2), and Penang International Airport (PIA).[21][22]

On 22 September, 2025, MyGate QR was deployed and underwent trial in BSI and KSAB car lanes and later motorcycle and pedestrian lanes on October 15.[23][24][25] MyGate QR is expected to deploy in KLIA T1 & T2 and PIA on 1 March, 2026 while Kota Kinabalu International Airport and Kuching International Airport will be integrated on 15 March, 2026.[26][27]
