Southern Integrated Gateway

The Southern Integrated Gateway is a large border facility in Johor Bahru that combines customs, immigration, and quarantine operations with a railway station and bus terminal. All these services sit together under one structure to move travelers efficiently between Malaysia and Singapore.

Construction of this national complex began in 2003 and the facility officially opened in 2008 as Sultan Iskandar Complex. Since then it has become the main entry point for all forms of travel between Johor and Singapore.

The complex reflects Malaysia's approach to international movement through multilingual signage in Malay, English, and Tamil that serves the diverse communities passing through daily. Visitors notice how these languages shape the way people navigate and interact with the space.

The building is designed to handle large volumes of passengers and offers plenty of parking for travelers crossing the border. Expect queues during peak times and allow time for immigration and customs procedures.

The facility works as a central hub where visitors can use train, bus, car, or taxi to cross the border. This variety of transportation options under one roof is unusual for a border facility and practical for different types of travelers.
