In Malaysia, the typical rental deposit is a security deposit equivalent to 2.5 months' rent (sometimes called '2+1' – two months as security deposit and one month as advance rent). However, this is not fixed by law; it is negotiable between landlord and tenant. The deposit is refundable at the end of the tenancy, subject to the condition of the property and any outstanding bills. It's important to get a signed tenancy agreement detailing the deposit terms.
