renew or apply for International Passport Malaysia in Puchong Selangor branch

I decide to have this short note record for whoever try to search this relevant info on internet, i found it is no able to found the updated info of this for year 2014, luckily i had successfully done it on the date i went there, however i wish to share this info may helpful for you. 

kindly please be inform the passport Malaysia is issue by Immigration department(IMI) not the Jabatan pendaftaran Negara(JPN). 

For the puchong case sometime is confusing, why confusing?

ok, peoples was telling me that i can do the Passport Malaysia in Puchong , the place that we apply for the ID card mykad. Ok, i know where it is but can JPN do the passport for me? if not wrong last time the JPN Maluri Cheras branch can't. This is the first question come into my mind, but my friend told me that he read from the web some people said they do it at there, so i decide to believe what my friend read then.. in the 7am+ i arrive there, already 16 people queue there, so i follow the queue, but the queue is toward to JPN office, at first i don't realise the immigration office is on the 2nd floor, so i start doubt to myself whether i am in the correct queue and correct place, i asked then confirmed, it is correct place and queue. I have to queue and go in the JPN puchong to get the number, then whatever passport transaction have to go immigration office in 2nd floor. then i know that is 2 department in same shop lot different floor. 

i try to searching on the internet, that is no 2014 latest update what i had to bring and fill up in order to renew/apply the new Passport Malaysia.

The address of the puchong branch is: 

67-69(2nd floor) , Jalan PU 7/4, 
Taman Puchong Utama, 
47100 Puchong, Selangor 

It's near Carrefour Puchong Utama (you can't see this Immigration Dept/JPN puchong branch from the main road, so it will be good u try googling the google map for find the way to go there before you go.

*There are few documents that you require to bring along while going to the Immigration office:

1) old passport. if you are renew your passport


2) Malaysian ID card (mykad) - make sure it is workable, as the officer will require to verify it. 


i) for children without mykad should be the birth certificate

Passport Fees


  1. RM100.00/RM150 for 2 years( from imi.gov.my is RM100, but some forumer is saying RM150, so it is good you call to check or bring RM150.00 for back up)

  2. RM300.00 for 5 years (i am getting this 5 years package)

Go there earlier if you don't want to wait too long. it will wait long did i mean process is slow? no, may be due to the volumne/demand is not big the demand is not keen, so in puchong only 1 counter for process to apply and renew the passport malaysia, another counter is payment (pembayaran) and another is passport collection. So that is 3 counter and each counter had it own function, so this will make you feel it is slow. Anyway, it is moving actually, be patient. 

How long you can collect the passport? 
after the payment, you can collect it for 1 hour, the process is quite in satisfactory speed.

you can also come to collect more than 1 hours, this i confirm as i check with the officer there. based on the receipt it this passport had to collected within 3 months, so i guess you can collect within 3 months, however, please check with the office there, and unless you have some urgent matter, else please collect in the same day, since you pay for it already.
