Questions Malaysia-based NRIs ask us

Can I get a home loan without visiting India? +
Yes. Most lenders accept a notarized Power of Attorney (attested via the Indian High Commission in Malaysia) along with digital or video KYC, so the process can be completed remotely, with physical presence typically needed only at final registration in some cases.
What's the minimum income required from Malaysia? +
Most Indian lenders group Malaysia with the USA and other non-Gulf countries under one income bracket, commonly around USD 3,500/month equivalent — roughly MYR 15,000-16,500/month at typical exchange rates, though this varies by lender and loan amount.
Can I use my EPF contribution history as income proof? +
EPF (Employees Provident Fund) contribution statements, alongside payslips and Malaysian tax filings, are commonly accepted as supporting income proof for NRI home loan applications from Malaysia.
Does my Employment Pass affect my eligibility? +
Your Employment Pass type doesn't itself determine NRI eligibility under FEMA — what matters is your Indian citizenship and demonstrable income stability, which your pass, EPF records, and payslips help establish.
