My 1st Passport

Today 8am, i went to Jabatan Imigresen Malaysia at Kajang (located at above bus station Hentian Kajang) with my roommate, to do our first passport. Along the way, many people ask us do you have passport photos & a photocopy of IC. "Yes, i do have"

Before i enter the office, the security guard asked us again, the same question & i give the same answer, haha... We took the form from counter "Borang Pemohonan/Pertanyaan" and fill in the blank. Then we proceed to counter no.2 (i think is called "Penyemakan Borang Pemohonan") The officer said my photo not ok, so i have to do a new one. Well, i go to the opposite shop, take the passport photo, RM10 for 4 pieces, given softcopy if you bring along your pendrive. All was done in 3 minutes.

Seems like more people are coming to do passport too. I queue up to check my form, then i was given a piece of small paper with number on it. Within 15 seconds, it's my turn to bring along my form to submit. As usual, they took your fingerprint on right hand & left hand. Afterward, wait your turn to pay for you passport.

After the payment, given resit, the officer asked me to wait 1 hour to get my passport. It was 8.45am that time. Therefore, i decided to walk around and eat something with my roommate. I bought waffle as my breakfast. We sat on the chair outside the office and enjoy our breakfast. While eating, my curiosity brought me to stand up and see what's the number showing on the board now. Surprisingly, i saw my number!! It was 9am only... So i quickly asked my roommate help me hold the waffle, and i rush to the counter to collect my passport. Before i leaving, the officer ask me whether want to buy the cover for passport, RM3. Ya, i bought it, haha...

Here is my passport ^^


Well, i need to praise them for their efficiency... it's only took me 15 minutes to collect my passport. =D
