PUTRAJAYA: Foreigners without a valid travel pass or who have overstayed will only be fined RM500 if they want to return home under a new Migrant Repatriation Programme which will start on March 1, says the Immigration Department.

Those who violated their travel passes or permits will only be charged RM300 to return to their country of origin, said department director-general Datuk Ruslin Jusoh (pic).
