Can I apply for citizenship for my overseas-born child(ren) under Article 15(2) [Borang B] at JPN offices other than JPN Putrajaya?

You can submit your application at any states JPN, but we always advise mothers to submit it in Putrajaya. This helps avoid delays, as all applications need to be sent to Putrajaya anyway. Additionally, officials there are more experienced in handling citizenship applications under Article 15(2) (Borang B). If you’re living in Sabah or Sarawak, traveling to West Malaysia to submit your application may be too costly. In that case, you can submit your application at JPN Kuching or JPN Kota Kinabalu. We have other mothers in our network who have successfully submitted their applications at these two state JPN offices.
