    JUST IN: Malaysia might extend passport validity to 10 years

    🔔 [Update: 19 February 2024] The Immigration Department of Malaysia is looking into extending the validity of passports from 5 years to 10 years.
    Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail had just announced that the department is currently conducting a survey to evaluate the viability of Malaysia following the 10-year period, as it has already been adopted by neighbouring Southeast Asian countries such as Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines and Singapore.

    Some tips for your online passport renewal

    1. The most common roadblock faced by those trying to renew their passport online is taking a photo that successfully meets the standards of the online system. Here are some tips to take your photo: wear dark colour clothing, take it in bright lighting against a plain background (with no shadows), and ensure your hair doesn't cover your face/forehead. Many also use photo editing apps to ensure their photo meets the specifications required (e.g: to remove shadows or resize photo to meet sizing standards).
    2. After completing your application, you'll need to pick up your new passport from the office of your choice. Make sure to bring along your existing passport, IC, and payment receipt for a successful collection. You'll have to head over yourself - no representatives are allowed. Applicants under the age of 18 have to collect passport under the accompaniment of a guardian.
    3. Online renewal applicants will typically receive an approval for passport collection via email within 3 days. You may head straight to the office to check on the status if you don't receive an email in 3 days (in most situations, they will already have your passport ready by then! If they don't, you can just hand them your receipt to get it done).
    4. Current passport renewal rates (5-year validity): RM200 for applicants aged 13 - 59 years old & RM100 for applicants aged 60 years and above.

    Option 2: Renew your passport physically at the immigration office
