issued since 1998. malaysia is however not a member of the visa waiver program (vwp) and its first biometric passport did not conform to the same standards as the vwp biometric document because the malaysian biometric passport was issued several years ahead of the vwp requirement. the difference lies in the storage of fingerprint template instead of fingerprint image in the chip, the rest of the technologies are the same. also the biometric passport was designed to be read only if the receiving country has the authorisation from the malaysian immigration department. malaysia started issuing icao compliant passports from february 2010.
