People who want to renew their passports are urged to go online and make an appointment first!
Since the country opened its doors on April 1, most of the immigration offices in the country have been overwhelmed with people. In order to avoid crowds at the immigration offices, they are asking people to go online and make an appointment first, and then go to the immigration office at the appointed time.
If you are planning to go to the immigration office to apply for a new or renewed passport, it is recommended that you make an appointment first so that you can avoid a wasted trip.
Immigration has a comprehensive online appointment booking platform where people can not only book appointments, but also check their appointment times, adjust appointment times and cancel appointments.
Interested parties can visit http://sto.imi.gov.my/STO/home.php and select BOOK MY APPOINTMENT to make an appointment. After entering your ID number and name, you will be able to select the branch of the immigration office you want to make an appointment at.
However, it is understood that many of the immigration offices located in urban areas are currently full and people will have to wait until May for availability. If you are also planning to go abroad, it is recommended that you renew your passport early so that you do not have to wait to renew your passport and affect your trip abroad.
