The Johor–Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS‑SEZ) is a joint initiative between Malaysia and Singapore launched in January 2025, aiming to strengthen cross-border economic collaboration and attract global investment. This new zone combines Johor’s land and workforce with Singapore’s financial strength and business network.
Boost Cross-Border Connectivity: Improve movement of goods, services, and people between Johor and Singapore.

The JS‑SEZ will focus on developing several high-growth industries:

The JS‑SEZ is expected to generate thousands of skilled jobs and stimulate property and business growth in Johor Bahru and surrounding areas. Companies investing in the zone may also receive special tax incentives and government support.
