Sultan Iskandar CIQ Complex

Sultan Iskandar CIQ Complex (also known as JB CIQ) is an immigration checkpoint on the Malaysia side of the Johor–Singapore Causeway. All people and goods moving across the Causeway must clear the Checkpoint before they can continue on their journey.

For bus passengers, they must alight from the bus with all their belongings and pass through immigration on their own before being allowed to re-board their buses.

Photography is likely discouraged in the Checkpoint building.

Details:

Name: Sultan Iskandar CIQ Complex
Address: —
Berths: End-on boarding berths and straight alighting berths

The terminal:

Sultan Iskandar CIQ Complex contains two processing areas for bus commuters, one for each direction of traffic flow (in and out of Malaysia). When a bus arrives at the Checkpoint, it alights all passengers at the alighting berth, where lifts and escalators take passengers to the upper floor where the immigration clearances are located. After clearing immigration, passengers take lifts or escalators down to the boarding berths, where passengers re-board their buses.

At the same time, after alighting passengers, the empty bus will be subjected to security checks by immigration officials before being allowed to continue. The bus driver will then clear immigration and proceed to the berths to pick up passengers. The flow is similar for buses entering and leaving Malaysia.

Apart from relying on cross-border buses, passengers can reach the terminal on foot from JB Sentral Bus Terminal. A pedestrian walkway connects JB Sentral to the immigration clearance area.


Bus Services:

The terminal serves all bus routes plying Johor–Singapore Causeway, such as SBS Transit, SMRT Buses and Causeway Link services.
